German weapons for Ukraine

Ukraine's Ambassador to Germany, Oleksii Makeiev, has responded to media reports of alleged massive problems with German weapons transferred to the Armed Forces of Ukraine.

He said this in an interview with RND, Censor.NET reports.

Recently, the German edition of Spiegel published an article about massive defects in the weapons systems that Germany supplied to Ukraine.

Makeiev assured that these weapons are by no means unusable, and that German weapons are among the best in service in the Ukrainian Armed Forces.

"It is much better than Russian weapons. And it has proven itself very well. It saves lives every day," the ambassador emphasized.

At the same time, he acknowledged that in the context of war, there are signs that something in the armament needs to be changed.

"Germany and Ukraine are exchanging views on this issue. This is not a scandal, but a process of improvement," the diplomat added.
