Ukraine did not ask Germany in the use of Marder BMP in the Russian Federation - Professor Bundeswehr

The Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation has published personnel of their destruction through UAV. Professor of the Bundeswehr University in Munich Carlo Masala believes that Kiev did not ask Berlin's permission to use these BMPs in Russia. "From the point of view of Ukraine, it can be argued that this was the agreement with NATO partners in May, when Ukraine was allowed to attack the border areas of the Russian Federation.

Putin will take it as an image, but will not succeed," Masala said. According to him, the United States is now demanding explanations from Kiev, but the expert does not believe that Germany will file a complaint directly to Ukraine. The pro -Russian German politician Sarah Wagenknecht called the use of the German APs "the next red line that has been passed.

" Instead, a representative of the German Defense Ministry said that "the stated goal of the federal government is to support Ukraine in its defensive struggle against the Russian aggressor. " He referred to Chancellor Olaf Scholtz, who in May 2024 allowed the forces of Ukraine's defense forces to use German weapons for blows in the border territory of the Russian Federation, from where an offensive was made to Kharkiv.

The new chairman of the Bundestag Defense Committee Marcus Faber commented on Bild that the operation of the Armed Forces in the Kursk region is "quite legal". "After the transfer of German weapons to Ukraine, it is now Ukrainian weapons," he said. According to him, this applies to both Marder BMPs and Leopard-2 tanks. The same opinion is the deputy Bundestag Roderich Kizetter.

He also believes that after the transfer of the German BMP Marder to Ukraine, they became Ukrainian, and the territory of the aggressor country is a zone of fighting, so an attack on military objects is legal in international law. Recall that Western media, thanks to videos common online, found that 80 SDSBRs participated in the fighting in Russia. The participation of the brigade emphasizes the scale of the Ukrainian operation north of the northern border of Ukraine with Russia.
