Ukraine Should Receive More Means for Self-Defense, German FM Says

Ukraine should be given more means for self-defense and Berlin must consider all available options for action in this direction, German Foreign Minister Annalena Baerbock said.

"We must thoroughly examine all materials that could be used for this purpose," the DPA news agency quoted her as saying. According to the news agency, the minister did not directly mention the Taurus missiles that Kiev wants to receive from Berlin, TASS reported.

German Chancellor Olaf Scholz has repeatedly spoken out against the delivery of Taurus missiles to Ukraine.
