Germany today greenlit the use of NATO missiles to strike deep into Russia in a show of allied unity after Moscow pounded Ukraine with its largest drone barrage so far.
Chancellor Friedrich Merz said that Germany along with Ukraine’s other key Western backers had lifted range restrictions on weapons they send to Kyiv.
‘There are no longer any range restrictions on weapons delivered to Ukraine – neither by the British nor by the French nor by us nor by the Americans,’ he said.
‘Ukraine can now defend itself, for example, by attacking military positions in Russia… With very few exceptions, it didn’t do that until recently. It can now do that.’
The previous German government had strongly supported Kyiv, but stopped short of sending it long-range Taurus missiles, fearing further escalation with Russia.
