According to diplomats, no one was injured in the incident, and there was no intrusion into the consulate.
The Consulate General of Ukraine in Hamburg reportedly appealed to the police to conduct an operational investigation and bring the perpetrators to justice.
“According to the provisions of the Vienna Convention on Consular Relations, the host state must ensure the security of consular offices accredited in its territory. The Consulate General continues to operate on a full-time basis,” the Foreign Ministry said.
Let’s add
Opposition to aid Ukraine has recently been demonstrated in Germany.
On January 18, German Chancellor Olaf Scholz said that Germany was pursuing a strategy of abandoning the export of lethal weapons.
According to him, Germany adheres to this strategy in the Russia-NATO Council, within the OSCE, in bilateral talks between the United States and Russia, as well as in negotiations within the “Norman format”.
At the same time, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine stated that Kyiv does not lose hope to agree on this with Berlin.
Later, the head of the German navy, Deputy Prime Minister Kai-Achim Schenbach, said that Ukraine would not be able to return the temporarily occupied Crimea.
Earlier this week, Ukraine’s ambassador to Germany, Andriy Melnyk, said Berlin’s decision to send 5,000 military helmets to Ukraine as military aid was just a “drop in the ocean”.
