Ex-chairman of Munich Security Conference calls for supply of Taurus missiles to Ukraine

He said this on the X social media platform, Ukrinform reports.

"Why doesn't the West switch from passive to active picy? The message to Putin should be like this: if there are attacks on civilian Ukrainian targets again, then the Taurus, for example, will be delivered the next day. This is your choice," Ischinger wrote after Russia's massive attack on Ukraine.

He considers the West's current strategy in response to Moscow's actions to be bad.

At the same time, the ambassador said that he fully supports diplomatic tions, if any.

Many German piticians, including those from the position and the ruling coalition, are demanding the transfer of Taurus cruise missiles with a range of 500 kilometers to Ukraine. At the same time, German Chancellor af Schz still does not support this idea. Berlin constantly emphasizes that the weapons systems it provides to Ukraine cannot be used against targets on Russian territory.
