STORYLINE:
European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen said Tuesday that "Putin must fail and Ukraine must prevail" at a Ukrainian recovery conference in Berlin.
"We must help Ukraine to raise from the ashes and to be the master of its own future," She added.
Germany is hosting a conference on Tuesday to gather support for Ukraine’s recovery from the destruction wreaked by Russia’s war, sending a new signal of solidarity with Kyiv at the start of a week of intense diplomacy.
The two-day Ukraine Recovery Conference in Berlin, following up on a similar gathering in London a year ago, comes before the Group of Seven summit of Ukraine’s leading Western allies in Italy and a global peace summit in Switzerland this coming weekend.
German Chancellor Olaf Scholz directed his speech to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy saying they will continue to work towards building a "strong, free European Ukraine."
