The Secretary General of the Social Democratic Party of Germany (SPD), Kevin Kuhnert, on the air of the ZDF TV channel, drew attention to the fact that after the FRG agreed to supply Ukraine with Leopard 2 tanks in the EU countries, “it became very quiet.”

“In recent weeks, it sometimes seemed that the whole world wants to send (tanks. - Gazeta.Ru), but not the Federal Republic of Germany. Now we see that Germany has made concrete commitments and that a tank company will indeed be delivered. And suddenly it became very quiet around us, ”he said due to the fact that many of Germany’s partners in the EU have not yet committed themselves to supply tanks to Kyiv.

Kuhnert, at the same time, noted that the equipment and ammunition intended for Ukraine are “scarce”.

Earlier, German Chancellor Olaf Scholz said that there was a “consensus” with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky on refusing to strike at Russian territory with weapons supplied by Western countries.
