This was reported by Bild.

Rauch, along with German Vice Chancellor Robert Habeck, arrived in Kyiv today, signaling Germany's commitment to providing long-term support to Ukraine.

"Should Putin's war in Ukraine succeed, it will likely continue. It's crucial for our security and peace in Europe that Ukraine defends itself successfully, and we must aid in that effort," stated Vice Chancellor Habeck.

Rauch confirmed the transfer of another Iris-T system to Ukraine, saying, "We already have three systems in Ukraine, and more will be delivered this year. The next one will arrive in just a few weeks."

The German delegation plans to hold meetings with President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, Deputy Prime Minister Yulia Svyrydenko, and Minister of Energy Herman Halushchenko during their visit.

Earlier on April 13, Germany announced the transfer of another Patriot system to Ukraine, and on April 17, the German government initiated efforts to locate and supply additional air defense resources to Ukraine.
