After the informal meeting of NATO foreign ministers, Federal Foreign Minister Annalena Baerbock said that NATO agreed that they must not and will not let up on military support.
And she goes on to say: “We are all aware that this war will not be over any time soon.” That is why NATO is currently more important than ever. Baerbock also welcomes the interest of Sweden and Finland, which are currently taking part in NATO missions. “They are already NATO members, just without ID.” There shouldn’t be a gray phase between the application and ratification, which is why Germany would also like to adopt a fast-track procedure so that “Germany can be one of the first to ratify”. . Baerbock ends her statement with: “Sweden and Finland, if you are ready, we are ready.”
