Germany's Foreign Minister Visits Kyiv Amid Escalating Russian Attacks The arrival of German Foreign Minister Johann Wadephul in Kyiv by special train on Saturday serves as a potent symbol of Berlin's commitment to Ukraine's cause.

Wadephul's visit coincides with the 35th anniversary of Ukraine's independence from the Soviet Union, which has been marked by bloodshed in each of the past four years.
