Merz about the departure of Taurus for the Armed Forces: Ukraine will produce rockets itself (video)

The German Chancellor did not directly answer the question of providing Ukraine with Taurus long -range missiles. Zelensky added that there are already projections from long -range weapons, but German money will allow them to be scaled. The leaders of the countries have agreed to continue the military support of Ukraine, including the financing of Starlink's work in Ukraine. Merz stressed that there will be no restrictions on the use of long -range weapons in the Armed Forces.

Ukraine will be able to fully protect and beat the enemy's military objects. However, the details of the arrangements will not be announced publicly, the chancellor added. The German Tabloid Bild wrote about the Taurus missile supplies to the Chancellor's statements. Kyiv will not receive any German long -range missile, the sources of the publication noted.

"This is nothing but attempts to make Ukrainians fight. It is nothing more than an obstruction of attempts to enter the trajectory of the peace process," said Russian Presidential spokesman Dmitry Peskov. According to him, Germany demonstrates "a very dangerous trend and irresponsible position.

" The head of RT Channel Margarita Simonyan said that in Moscow offices they were discussing the answers to the strikes of German weapons on the Russian Federation.

Recall that the CEO of RheinMetall Defense Concern Armin Papperger believes that the winged Taurus missiles will not significantly affect the war in Ukraine. Focus also described the combat capabilities of Taurus long -range missiles. German weapons have several modifications.
