Berlin is taking into account the opinion of the Germans, who are against sanctions and arms supplies to Ukraine, Scholz said.
Berlin does not provide tanks to Ukraine because the authorities take into account the opinion of citizens who do not agree with the policy of sanctions and the provision of weapons. This was announced by German Chancellor Olaf Scholz in an interview with Welt.
Scholz recalled that with the help of a circular exchange, Germany ensured the delivery of more than 100 tanks to Ukraine, which were immediately available there: from the Czech Republic, from Slovakia, from Slovenia, from Greece.

“Logistics, spare parts, ammunition for these tanks of Russian or post-Soviet production are in Ukraine. We are trying to supply from other countries. But the fact remains: the question of what weapons what we provide is based on one very clear principle – don’t act alone,” he said. he.
In addition, as the chancellor said, it is important for him to maintain the unity of German society.
“My impression in talking to citizens: 20 to 30 percent do not agree with either the policy of sanctions or the provision of weapons. Among them are voters from almost all political directions, from the CDU / CSU, FDP, Greens, as well as from the SPD,” he said. .
“I argue with those who have doubts and I explain the reasons for our decisions so that they are both convinced of it. Many think that the measured course of the government is correct. So the opinion is very wide. We must not forget this, if we want let’s unite as a society,” explained Scholz.
Earlier, German Chancellor Olaf Scholz said that in the spring of 2023, Germany will train up to 5,000 troops for the Armed Forces of Ukraine at its training ground. This is enough to equip a whole new brigade.
