Friedrich Merz is the Chancellor of Germany, as indicated by multiple references in Russian-language media. He has expressed support for continued military aid to Ukraine while also advocating for negotiations with Russia over the conflict, calling for a freeze on the front lines and engagement with Moscow. His positions have drawn criticism from some European leaders, including French President Emmanuel Macron, who opposed efforts by the EU Council to establish dialogue with Russia.
