Summary/Abstract: The aim of the article is to present the role of Germany in the geopolitical game overUkraine. It consists of three parts, in which successively were presented: general frameworks and the geopolitical dimension of Ukrainian crisis, the controversies around Ukrainian crisis policy towards Russia in Germany, and the role of a federal government in the geopolitical game over Ukraine in the period 2013–2015. The general thesis of the article is that despite internal controversiesin Germany the CDU/CSU/SPD government works to keep the armistice in Donbas (Minsk Iand II) as a foreground premise for carrying out long-range reforms and reconstruction of Ukraineas a associated partner of the EU, at the same time heading toward gradual search of agreementand compromise with Russia. In spite of criticism on the part of some NATO and EU members Germany entirely exclude we apon supplies to Ukraine, betting on the long-term need of peacefulresolution of Ukrainian crisis and demure the possibility of Ukraine’s membership in NATO.
