No majority in the Bundestag for Taurus delivery to Ukraine. Only 182 MPs voted in favor, 480 against, and there were 5 abstentions.
“Ukraine continues to not receive the full amount of material it urgently needs to effectively deter Russia’s war of aggression,” Friedrich Merz said. Germany will continue not to deliver Taurus cruise missiles to Ukraine, the government said on Thursday. The move was backed by the CDU/CSU parliamentary group in which this weapon system was explicitly mentioned.
