German Chancellor Olaf Scholz has once again spoken out against supplying Ukraine with long-range Taurus missiles. In his opinion, this could drag his country into a war with Russia. This is reported by the RND edition.


"We should in no way be associated with the goals that this system achieves (talk about the range of Taurus missiles - ed.). Therefore, this is not the next option on the agenda. This clarity is also necessary. I'm surprised that some people are not worried at all, they don't even think about whether what we are doing could in some way lead to participation in a war," Scholz said.


He explained that Taurus missiles are very long-range weapons, and "what the British and French do in terms of target control is impossible to do in Germany."


"Everyone who has dealt with this system knows this," the chancellor added.


Scholz noted that he is "very annoyed by the lack of balance between what is really needed now and the discussion about Taurus."


"What Ukraine lacks is ammunition for all possible lengths and distances, but not primarily from Germany," he said.
