with German Finance Minister Christian Lindner
August 2, 2022

WASHINGTON – Earlier today, Secretary of the Treasury Janet L. Yellen spoke with German
Finance Minister Christian Lindner. During the call, Secretary Yellen discussed the critical need
to respond to Ukraineʼs near-term economic assistance needs caused by Russiaʼs unprovoked
and unjustified war. In addition, Secretary Yellen conveyed appreciation for Germanyʼs key
role, as part of its G7 presidency, in exploring a price cap on Russian oil and in the progress
being made in technical-level discussions.
