The German Chancellor assured Ukraine of further support, and also stated the need to strengthen the policy of containment and strengthen defense in Europe.
Together with our allies, we must be so strong that no one dares to attack us,” Scholz said.
Without security, everything else is nothing. Without security there is no freedom, no democracy, no human rights,” Scholz said. NATO remains the best guarantee of such security, he said.
Scholz admitted that the Bundeswehr had “not been given enough attention” in recent years, but that was now a thing of the past.
Germany is investing 2% of GDP in defense for the first time in decades. The Chancellor spoke about the allocation of funds for new helicopters and fighters, frigates and submarines, as well as modernized infantry fighting vehicles. In addition, according to Scholz, air defense against missiles and drones is being expanded.
