German Gen. Freuding - We prepare Ukrainian forces for victory

Kiev has been unable to make significant gains despite Berlin and other NATO members already spending billions on defense aid.

Germany is not daunted by the prospect of a protracted conflict between Russia and Ukraine, and will back Kiev for the next decade, Brigadier General Christian Freuding has said. He added that Germany is seeking to ensure that Ukraine retakes all the territory within its 1991 borders.
