Deputy from Germany’s ruling Social Democratic Party Niels Schmid said that Germany “is not tired of supporting Ukraine.”
Nils Schmid, a deputy from Germany’s ruling Social Democratic Party, named specific numbers and terms for the delivery of the BMP Marder to Ukraine. He said this on the air of rbb24 Inforadio, writing European Truth.
“We assume that the Bundeswehr can do without about 40 of these vehicles, or that it can use industrial stocks. It will take some time for the Ukrainians to familiarize themselves with them, but we will be able to supply the weapons this in the first quarter of this year,” said Schmid.
The MP rejected accusations that the decision was made only now, and said that Germany “is not tired of supporting Ukraine.” He also noted that “there is no ban” on the supply of weapons, but that they should be a response to the escalation of the war and that NATO “should not be drawn into the war.”
It will be recalled, following a telephone conversation between German Chancellor Olaf Scholz and US President Joe Biden, it was learned that Germany is ready to transfer Marder armored vehicles and a Patriot air defense system battery to Ukraine. According to media reports, we are talking about the supply of up to 40 infantry fighting vehicles.
The Russian embassy in Berlin “strongly condemned” the German intention to transfer Marder armored vehicles to Ukraine, calling the decision “cynical”.
