Aug 6, 2024
The chairman of the European Parliament's defense committee, Marie-Agnes Straka-Zimmermann, calls on the governments of Germany and other EU countries to increase the supply of weapons to Ukraine.
This is reported by RBC-Ukraine with reference to ZDF.
In addition, she called on the West to take additional measures to improve the effectiveness of the American F-16 fighters recently delivered to Ukraine.
"This is an important signal and effective support that F-16s are finally being delivered," the politician said.
Straka-Zimmermann emphasized that Europe should not give up.
"All states - not only Germany - must do everything possible to protect Ukraine and enable it to continue to defend itself," she said.-
In her opinion, this includes both support for air defense units and the supply of Taurus cruise missiles, regardless of the opinion of the German Chancellery.
