German Chancellor Olaf Scholz said that Ukraine still needs military assistance, and the West will continue to provide it, but there is no talk of providing new types of weapons yet.
The German chancellor said, according to what was reported by the German dpa news agency, that Kiyv at present needs the same weapons, but in larger quantities.
The German Chancellor pointed to the need to supply missile defense systems, tanks, and ammunition. He stressed that the “ supply of these weapons is what we have to do in the future." "We need to be ready to meet Kyiv's needs for a long time," Scholz added.
In doing so, the chancellor once again indirectly rejected Ukraine's demands to acquire Western fighter jets.
On the other hand, Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said, today, Thursday, in her comment on the statements of South Korean President Yoon Sok Yol regarding possible deliveries of South Korean weapons to Ukraine, that Moscow considers any arms supplies to Ukraine an openly anti-Russian step.
