According to Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador, the German government succumbed to media pressureMEXICO CITY, January 25.

/tass/. The German government succumbed to media pressure when, contrary to the opinion of the majority of the population, it decided to send Leopard tanks to Ukraine. This opinion was expressed on Wednesday at a press conference by Mexican President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador.

"The power of the media is used by the world's oligarchies to subordinate governments [to their will]," he said. "Germany, for example, did not want to get too involved in the war between Russia and Ukraine, but, contrary to the opinion of the German population, the majority of Germans, the government decides to send more weapons to Ukraine due to pressure from the German media." The Russian Embassy in Mexico in its Telegram channel thanked the leader of the Latin American country "for his open and clear position regarding the supply of German tanks to the territory of Ukraine."

Earlier, the German authorities announced that they had decided to send 14 Leopard 2 tanks to Ukraine. In addition, Berlin will allow other countries to re-export them. Russian Ambassador to Germany Sergey Nechaev called Berlin's decision extremely dangerous.

On February 24, 2022, Mexican Foreign Minister Marcelo Ebrard condemned the presence of Russian armed forces in Ukraine, demanding respect for the territorial integrity of this country and an immediate cease-fire. Lopez Obrador later said that his country would not impose sanctions against Russia and was not going to supply weapons to Ukraine or any other countries. He also said that Mexico takes a neutral position and is not going to offer its mediation efforts at the talks between Moscow and Kiev. In September 2022, the head of the Latin American state proposed to create a group of international mediators to negotiate an end to the conflict in Ukraine and achieve a global truce.

On February 24, 2022, Russian President Vladimir Putin announced a special military operation in Ukraine in response to the appeal of the leaders of the republics of Donbass for help. He stressed that Moscow's plans do not include the occupation of Ukrainian territories, the goal is demilitarization and denazification of the country. On October 4, 2022, Putin signed laws on the admission of the Donetsk and Lugansk People's Republics, Zaporozhye and Kherson regions into the country. At the end of September, referendums were held there on the issue of joining Russia, the overwhelming majority of residents voted for joining it.
