German Chancellor Olaf Scholz has ruled out the transfer of combat aircraft to Ukraine. He also emphasizes that Germany will not deploy its troops to Ukraine

Spiegel reported the chancellor’s statement.

"I made it clear very early on that it's not about combat aircraft and I'm doing that here too," the chancellor said. 

"Under no circumstances will we send ground troops. I said there will be no direct involvement of NATO soldiers in the Ukraine war. This has not been the case so far and will not be the case in the future either," Scholz added.
