German opposition leader supports providing combat aircraft to Ukraine

Pravda Ukraine

Friedrich Merz, leader of Germany’s opposition Christian Democratic Union (CDU) party, believes that Germany should supply Ukraine with combat aircraft.

Source: DW, citing Merz’s statement made on ARD, a German TV channel, as reported by European Pravda

Details: Merz is convinced that it is necessary to help Ukraine “at least regain sovereignty over its own airspace”. 

Quote: “Because these missile attacks, which are increasingly targeting infrastructure, electricity and water supply facilities, hospitals and nursing homes, cannot be controlled solely from the ground.”

Therefore, Merz believes that the supply of combat aircraft to Ukraine is already an issue that has been settled in many countries, including in the EU. 

“We Germans cannot stand aside,” he added.
