In a historical vote in late April 2022 about "Comprehensive support for Ukraine", which mainly comes down to sending heavy weapons, machinery and ammunition to Ukraine in order to support the government of Zelensky, the members of the Bundestag overwhelmingly voted in favor for it. The bulk of the "no" votes came from the AFD and Die Linke.

Tino Chrupalla pointed out that the declaration reads like an accession to war and could make Germany a belligerent in a nuclear war. In principle it is in Germany's interest to maintain good relations with both Ukraine and Russia.
