Weapons for approximately € 600 million: which will be included in the Assistance Package to Ukraine from Germany - the media

Germany plans to announce the supply of weapons during the NATO summit. According to journalists, the Minister of Defense Boris Pistorius has approved the transfer of Kiev tanks Leopard, BMPs, drones and ammunition, as well as installations for Patriot complexes. During the NATO summit in Vilnius, the German government will announce a new package of military assistance to Ukraine.

Country Minister Boris Pistorius has prepared a corresponding list of weapons and ammunition for the last few weeks worth about 600 million euros. This was reported with reference to their own sources in Spiegel on July 11. In government circles, journalists were guaranteed that the help pack would be "very significant". According to the newspaper, Germany will provide Ukraine: the media stressed that shells are considered strategically important because of their lack in the Armed Forces.

Patriot installations that have proven efficiency in recent months were also important. However, German journalists emphasized that the supply of a new weapons party in Ukraine can be perceived "with mixed feelings" in the Bundesver (German Armed Forces). Such a reaction can cause the Bundesver himself to have only a few Patriot and not enough expensive high -tech ammunition.

According to the newspaper, before the summit, NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg urged some countries to strengthen Ukraine's military support. He stated that it is especially important to ensure a continuous supply of shells. "Tank and artillery ammunition is not enough in all Member States, and the Bundesver warehouses are also quite empty.

Therefore, in recent weeks, the military department has concluded large contracts for the production of ammunition with the armed industry," the media added. We will remind, on July 11 in OP told what President Volodymyr Zelenskyy will speak with US leader Joe Biden during the NATO summit. In addition to Ukraine's accession to the Alliance, politicians will discuss the country's military support.
