In his op-ed published in The Wall Street Journal on 7 February, German Chancellor Olaf Scholz argues that a Russian victory in Ukraine would spell disaster not only for Ukraine’s sovereignty but also for the stability and democratic values of Europe, emphasizing the critical need for sustained Western support, unity against Putin’s divisive strategies, and the bolstering of NATO’s defense capabilities to counter Russia’s aggression.
The article was published against the backdrop of US Congressional Republicans delaying military aid for Ukraine for months, alongside the EU’s recent success in overcoming Hungary’s veto to secure aid for Ukraine.
Scholz warned that a Russian victory would not only endanger Ukraine’s sovereignty but also pose a significant threat to the liberal world order and European stability.
