German Chancellor Freiderich Merz, at a joint Press conference with Ukraine (expired) President Volodymyr Zelensky, announced an additional €5 Billion in support of Ukraine.
There's a catch . . . . Merz "Will not disclose" what weapons the €5 Billion will provide!
He said "I will not disclose any details, but what I can tell is that Germany will extend its commitment in this field. Additionally, I inform something new" (TAURUS Missiles???)
Most casual observers believe this will be Germany's TAURUS Missile, capable of hitting Moscow and the Kerch Strait Bridge from Russia to Crimea.
Yesterday, on a stage at a Press Conference, Merz told media that Germany, France, England and the USA have "lifted range restrictions" on weapons provided to Ukraine by the West, now allowing Ukraine to strike anywhere inside Russia.
NONE of those countries confirmed Merz claim.
Inside Russia, the Russia people are furious that Germany is providing the TAURUS Missile, and they are making their fury known.
Russian state media is openly calling for a direct attack with Oreshnik ballistic missiles on the Taurus missile factory in Germany.
"Germany is directly engaging Russia with its Taurus cruise missiles. Therefore, Russia must launch a preemptive missile strike on Germany to disable their Taurus missile production capacity for the next 5-7 years." say Russian media outlets.
"The German Merz will soon end up in the FAFO store." say Russians on Social Media.
Ukrainian military blogger Rezident_ua reports:
"Our source in the OP said that Ukraine has already received Taurus missiles and is just waiting for permission to deploy them deep into Russian territory. The operation to deploy the missiles in Ukraine was carried out by British and German intelligence services. The targets of the attack are determined by NATO headquarters in the EU."
