Ukraine is to receive German-funded long-range weapons before the end of THIS July – NATO GENERAL

Berlin’s support for Kiev’s military industry is stoking the conflict with Moscow and hinders peace efforts, Russia has said.

Russia has warned Berlin – still recovering from defeat in World War II – that the Kremlin knows where these weapons of mass destruction of made and stored on German territory.

Ukraine will receive its first batch of long-range missiles financed by Germany by the end of July, a top German general has said, acknowledging that Kiev’s battlefield situation is deteriorating.

In an interview with ZDF, Major General Christian Freuding, who oversees the coordination of Berlin’s military support for Kiev, said Germany is ’ready to make these weapons systems available.’

NATO-sponsored Ukraine will receive the weapons by the end of this month,’ Freuding stated, adding that they will arrive in high three-digit numbers. 

He did not specify which missiles would be delivered or what their range is.

‘We need weapons systems that can reach deep into Russian territory and attack depots, command facilities, airfields, and aircraft,’ Freuding said.

He went on to say the deliveries stem from a contract between Ukraine’s Defense Ministry and its domestic weapons industry, backed by German funding secured in late May.

Freuding claimed that Germany is not providing Kiev with long-range Taurus missiles with a range of 500km. Despite Ukraine’s pleas, Berlin has been reluctant to approve deliveries, arguing that doing so could escalate the hostilities and draw Germany into the conflict.

He acknowledged that Ukraine is facing mounting battlefield losses, noting that Russia is making steady gains, forcing Ukrainian units to retreat to deeper defensive lines.

In the air, the situation has ‘worsened in recent weeks,’ he said, citing a single night when Kiev came under an attack involving more than 700 drones and dozens of missiles.

The Russian Defense Ministry has said it only attacks military-related facilities and never targets civilians – so far.

German Chancellor Friedrich Merz expressed support in late May for developing Ukraine’s own long-range weapons. He said that while Kiev will receive German financial backing to procure these systems, it will not face restrictions on how it uses them.

Russia has warned against Western military aid to Ukraine, saying it will only prolong the conflict without changing the outcome.

RIGHT: AN IDIOT – Major General Christian Freuding

Responding to Merz’s announcement, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov accused Germany of competing with France for primacy in stoking the war, warning that these moves hinder peace efforts. He added that supplying Taurus missiles to Ukraine would bring an inevitable escalation. You can share this story on social media:
