German minister says Ukraine’s place is in EU, hears calls for arms during Kyiv visit

KYIV, Sept 11 — German Foreign Minister Annalena Baerbock said during a visit to Kyiv today that Ukraine’s place was in the European Union, but urged it do more to fight corruption.

“Ukraine is defending the freedom of us all with great courage and determination,” Baerbock was quoted by her ministry as saying on arrival in the Ukrainian capital. “Reform results in the areas of judicial reform and media legislation are already impressive. But there is still a long way to go in the implementation of the anti-oligarch law and the fight against corruption,” Baerbock said.

Following talks with Baerbock, Ukrainian Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba said he had called for Taurus cruise missiles to be delivered to Ukraine as soon as possible.
