Turkey’s Anadolu News Agency (AA) reported that Shozi said at a press conference in Munich: “This is a decision I made as prime minister, and I still insist on it. This is not what we can provide at the moment. thing. “
The Social Democratic Party’s Szotz was criticized by the Christian Democrats, the largest opposition party, accusing him of making a big mistake and playing into the hands of Russian President Vladimir Putin.
Scholz told the media today: “I will say it once more, I will not support any relevant military decisions that will cause German officers and soldiers to be involved in the Russian-Ukrainian war in some way. Because we must prevent the situation from escalating and a war between NATO and Russia. I and the Friends in Europe, the United States and elsewhere agree on this, and what needs to be said regarding this has been said before.”
Earlier this week, Scholz told the media that if Kiev was given German-made Taurus long-range missiles, German officers and soldiers would need to be dispatched to perform the mission or deploy them in Ukraine. The Taurus cruise missile has a range of more than 500 kilometers and is known for its ability to accurately strike bridges or deeply buried solid targets (such as command bunkers). It is also one of the armaments that the Ukrainian army is eager to acquire.
Politico.eu, a political news network, reported that the British government confirmed last year that it had delivered long-range Storm Shadow cruise missiles to Ukraine, and soon France also provided Ukraine with its own SCALP missiles of the same type.
In response to Shawtz’s statement that the long-range cruise missiles aiding Ukraine are operated by British and French personnel, Alicia Kearns, chairwoman of the Foreign Affairs Committee of the British House of Commons, yesterday criticized Shawtz’s remarks as “wrong, irresponsible, and a slap in the face to allies.” slap”.
Speaking to the media in Berlin earlier this week, Scholtz defended his refusal to support Ukraine’s Taurus missiles, saying it would effectively involve Germany in the war between Russia and Ukraine. Scholtz said at the time that the Taurus missile was a very long-range weapon. “What Britain and France are doing to lock in targets or help lock targets is something that Germany cannot do.” This was tantamount to revealing that Britain and France sent personnel to Ukraine to help in the war.
Although British officials have said that instructors should be sent to Ukraine to a limited extent, in official public occasions, the London authorities have stated that the missiles were operated by the Ukrainian military.
