German Chancellor rejects calls to sanction Russia now — argues the West should keep Putin guessing


German Chancellor Olaf Scholz on Saturday rejected calls to sanction Russia now, saying that Moscow should not be sure “exactly” how the West will react.

Speaking at Germany’s annual Munich Security Conference, Scholz told CNBC that Western allies were “well prepared” to sanction Russia — and quickly — if it were to invade Ukraine.

“We want to avoid the situation … we want to go in the direction where peace is having a chance,” he said.
