Scholz is criticized not only by opposition conservatives, but also by the Greens and Liberals (FDP), coalition partners of his Social Democrats (SPD), for hesitating with the decision to deliver heavy weapons to Ukraine.
CDU foreign policy expert Roderich Kiesewetter told ZDF television today that he appreciates the fact that the government is financially supporting Ukraine, but that it "cannot be redeemed". "What he really needs to do is send tanks and artillery systems," Kiesewetter said.
In today's Welt, Wadephul accused the government of trying to deceive the public by promising further financial assistance to Ukraine. "Ukraine has enough money, after all it is sent by the European Union. Additional funding is, therefore, just an unconvincing sham," he said.
