Former German Chancellor Angela Merkel said in her first interview since she resigned that she "does not blame herself" for Russia starting a war against Ukraine. This was reported by Censor.NЕТ citing the "European Pravda". Asked by Spiegel whether she could do more to avert the war in Ukraine, Merkel said: "I do not blame myself. It was not possible to create a security architecture that could prevent this." "Could more have been done to prevent such a tragedy - I already believe that this situation is a significant tragedy - could it have been prevented? And that is why you are asking yourself this, and, of course, I still ask myself this question." said Mrs. Merkel. Source: https://censor.net/en/n3346575
