This is reported by Tagesschau.

Scholz emphasized the importance of providing Ukraine with everything necessary for air defense.

Germany plans to deliver an additional unit of the Patriot anti-aircraft missile system, along with new Iris-T systems, Gepard anti-aircraft tanks, and additional ammunition.

In addition to this military aid, European nations will discuss the financing of support for Ukraine, which also ties into the European Union's medium-term financial plan.

  • In September, Germany's Foreign Minister, Annalena Baerbock, affirmed that despite economic challenges, the German public remains committed to supporting Ukraine in the face of full-scale Russian aggression.
