Roderich Kiesewetter, a CDU politician in charge of the party’s security affairs, said that well-equipped German troops must enter Ukraine at the appropriate time after the war ends. The former federal army colonel argues that using a “transatlantic architecture” to maintain peace in Ukraine is a realistic scenario.
In Roderich Kiesewetter’s opinion, there is no other option but to deploy German troops in Ukraine after the end of the war. “As Europe’s most economically powerful country, Germany must be ready to make a significant contribution to the maintenance of peace and the security architecture of Europe,” he said in the words of the Schwäbische Zeitung. Quoted and stated.
German troops in Ukraine? “Peacekeepers are effective.”
He said Germany must engage Ukraine “at the appropriate time” and “with a well-equipped force.” A representative of the Christian Democratic Union (CDU) said Berlin’s involvement would also take place within the framework of the European Union and NATO.

– Given the effectiveness of peacekeeping forces and the limited physical and human resources in Europe, a realistic scenario is the presence of Ukraine within the European and transatlantic security architecture, and therefore within NATO. That would include peacekeeping, Kiesewetter explained.
According to a survey by the Yugov Institute, a majority of Germans (56%) would support sending international peacekeeping forces to Ukraine in the event of a ceasefire. However, only 23% of respondents support the participation of German soldiers, and 33% directly declare that they do not want their participation.
Possibility of regime change in Germany. CDU leads opinion polls
In Germany, the CDU, to which Kiesewetter belongs, could return to power this year. In November, the three-party coalition government of the SPD, Greens and FDP that had ruled the country since 2021 collapsed. The Bundestag then refused to grant a vote of confidence to Olaf Scholz’s government, paving the way for an early vote in parliament. The date is set for February 23rd.

German media are preparing for a pre-election showdown between Chancellor Scholz (SPD) and opposition leader Friedrich Merz (CDU/CSU). However, as the latest polls show, it is the Christian Democratic Party group that can expect higher support. Only 7 percent of Germans believe the SPD will win the election, according to a survey conducted by the polling agency INSA for Bild.
