Germany‘s Hesitation on Long-Range missiles Disappoints Ukraine, say Dutch PM
Despite being a vital ally, Germany’s reluctance in supplying long-range Taurus missiles has sparked disappointment in Ukraine, which faces a formidable enemy equipped with advanced, long-range weaponry.
Dutch Prime Minister Mark Rutte, in an interview with German Press Agency (DPA), criticized Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelensky’s public criticism of German Chancellor Olaf Scholz. Rutte believes such criticism is unfair.
Rutte, unlike Scholz, expressed willingness to provide Ukraine with Taurus missiles and impose no restrictions on their usage. "Such capabilities are crucial for Ukraine," he said, acknowledging, however, that it’s ultimately up to the allies to decide what support to provide.
