German Defense Minister Boris Pistorius responded to Ukrainian Foreign Minister Dmitry Kuleba’s statements regarding the long-range Taurus missiles that Kiev wants to purchase. This was reported by TASS.
“To be honest, I think it’s inappropriate when it comes to the most supportive partner after the United States,” the military chief said.
He pointed out that this was not related to the semantic content of Kuleba’s statement. According to Pistorius, the “tone” of the Ukrainian diplomat’s statements “was wrong at that moment.”
He also noted that this situation would not affect Germany’s “actions” and its intention to continue supporting Ukraine.
