Ukrainian Foreign Minister Dmitry Kuleba had a quarrel with German Defense Minister Christina Lambrecht.

The reason for the quarrel was the supply of weapons.

A German newspaper reported this.

What’s happened

According to the publication, in a conversation with Lambrecht, the head of Ukrainian diplomacy asked Berlin to supply Kyiv with the missing ammunition as soon as possible or admit that the issue was removed from the agenda.

It was a difficult conversation, during which the diplomat lost his temper, – пишет The world.

As the publication explains, about 3 weeks ago Germany promised to supply Ukraine with Gepard anti-aircraft guns, but the process never got off the ground.

Kyiv requested these particular ZSUs, but the head of the German defense department believes that there is no point in supplies due to the lack of shells.

The fact is that ammunition is supplied to Germany from Switzerland, but Germany refuses supplies, citing its neutral status.

Die Welt also notes that Germany refuses to supply Ukraine with Leopard1 tanks and Marder infantry fighting vehicles, for which the Ukrainian Armed Forces have warheads.
