BBefore the Federal Chancellor and the French President met with the Polish Prime Minister on Friday followingnoon in the format of the “Weimar Triangle”, the two of them had a bilateral meeting in the Chancellery at lunchtime. This was eagerly awaited, following weeks of ever-increasing differences between Berlin and Paris, following debates regarding who in Europe should do more to support Ukraine, following French suggestions to at least think regarding deploying ground troops, and the clear German announcement that this was impossible.
After the discussions in the followingnoon, it was Tusk who was able to praise the great unity among them following the statements from Olaf Scholz and Emmanuel Macron. Everything that had been decided and “the atmosphere at the meeting today all shows very clearly,” he said in the Chancellery, “that these evil rumors that there should be disputes or differences of opinion between the capitals in Europe, that these rumors are not true.” .
