Olaf Solz is wary of sending German heavy weapons to Ukraine

Chancellor Olaf Solz ruled out the possibility of Germany deciding to send heavy weapons (armor, aircraft, etc.) to Ukraine on its own, indirectly responding to Foreign Minister Analeb Berbok, who on Monday called for “a halt to the as soon as possible heavy weapons in Ukraine “.

“There will be no individual action by Germany. We have already delivered weapons to Ukraine and will continue to do so, but there will be further consultation in the European Union. We will not do it alone. We are fighting for balanced action,” he said.

Germany has so far delivered missiles, grenades and machine guns to Ukraine, while yesterday the Rheinmetall industry announced that, with the approval of the government, it can deliver up to 50 tanks to Ukraine.

Economy Minister Robert Habek also spoke in favor of continuing the delivery of defense equipment, expressing confidence that a large-scale Russian attack on eastern Ukraine was imminent. “Germany has made this commitment and it must respond. It is a help in a dangerous situation,” Mr Habeck said, adding that Berlin had decided, for security reasons, not to talk about specific types of weapons or delivery routes. .
