Pressure on Merz intensifies

Markus Söder made it clear that he is not enthusiastic about the idea of transferring German Taurus to Ukraine to protect against Russian aggression.

"This will be decided by the new chancellor," the Bavarian premier made a statement on this matter.

Against this background, he decided to remind us of the limited resources of the German Air Force.

But above all, we need as many Tauruses as possible for ourselves,” added Söder.

According to him, the Taurus long-range missiles are the "best weapon" that Germany has at its disposal.

It is also worth noting that the co-chair of the Social Democratic Party of Germany, Lars Klingbeil, began to demand a joint decision by the CDU/CSU-SPD coalition on continuing military support for Ukraine.

"Germany must remain the largest military supporter of Ukraine in Europe," he emphasized.
