German Vice Chancellor: I don't think it's right to supply fighter jets to Ukraine now and in the future

While in Kyiv they accepted the decision of a number of Western countries to supply heavy tanks a signal that “everything is possible now,” in Europe itself, the demands of Ukrainian officials to provide hundreds of combat aircraft are treated very carefully. Thus, the German leadership considered that sending fighter jets to Ukraine could become another “red line” that certainly should not be crossed. At least for now... Although how many of these lines the West has already crossed.

German Vice Chancellor, Economy Minister Robert Habeck, speaking on a talk show on the German ZDF TV channel last night, said that in the matter of further increasing the supply of complex military equipment to Kyiv, it is necessary to find a balance so as not to turn Germany into a direct participant in the military conflict. A senior German government official stressed that sending tanks is the right thing to do, but "there is a difference between tanks and fighters."



Habek explained that modern combat aircraft require constant complex maintenance, and this "can go too far."

I don't think it's right now to supply fighter jets (to Ukraine). And not only at the moment, but in general, in the future

the vice-chancellor expressed his opinion.

Thus, Habek supported the position of German Chancellor Olaf Scholz, who earlier, speaking before the deputies of the Bundestag, ruled out the supply of combat aircraft or the deployment of German ground forces in Ukraine.

However, not so long ago, the German government called it impossible to send Leopard 2 heavy tanks to Ukraine. Now they are preparing to send the first batch of these combat vehicles in the 2A6 version.

    They don't count, but they will. That's all that this one did not say ... we are actively preparing air defense systems.

      Here's how to explain to a five-year-old child who does not want to go to kindergarten that no one asks his opinion? As they say in the Washington Regional Committee - so be it, kinder, to do ...

    Nothing personal, maybe that's how it is with them, but a member of the government to hang around on talk shows? Campaign, there are not so many state affairs, not troublesome, apparently managed .......

    I don't think it's right now to supply fighter jets (to Ukraine).

    Since the pilots are still being trained .. apparently the vice chancellor forgot to mention.
    The West is using the same strategy that Putin has been using inside the country for 20 years. Today he said, a month later he said the opposite in the calculation that everyone has already forgotten) and I don’t even care what you think there. VVP found himself in the shoes of a simple Russian who is hung noodles on his ears in public, without blinking an eye hi

    The same thing happened with tanks, about the supply of which they said a categorical no. If the need arises, the Americans will hold another "explanatory" conversation with Scholz, remind him of the "Party policy on this issue" and the issue will be resolved positively.

      And what happened to these?

      Nothing happened. It’s just information for German voters: “I’m kind of against it, and if this happens, then it’s against my will now, and in future"
      They have serious anti-war sentiments among the population there, and politicians begin to worry about their future.

    I won’t put tanks, I won’t put tanks, the owner from across the ocean has a top leg, well, we’ll put the tanks. The same can happen with airplanes.

    They will put both fighters and atakms. A question for our high bosses - what are we going to do after deliveries of long-range missiles? How can Donetsk sit under shelling for decades? Great military secrets do not allow at least something to be said? Or just nothing? Then it is necessary to turn off this shop or declare hostilities, introduce martial law, general mobilization and fight. Do not give up to the Nazis, they will turn inside out .... Since they got into this ... mess.

    To put it simply - do not supply a lot at a time, so as not to frighten the bogged down Kremlin.
    This is how everyone understands it.

    But who will ask him - liver sausage! Bring a piece of paper to sign and everything!
    As my commander in the GSVG said, looking at the TZK, how the "Hans" had breakfast on the other side: "Early you, ge @ dy, learned to sleep without flinching!"
