German Chancellor Olaf Scholz has called on European countries to step up their support for Ukraine by providing essential military equipment, including munition, artillery, tanks, and air defense systems, particularly Patriot air defense systems.
During a speech in Stockholm, Scholz expressed his commitment to standing by Ukraine for as long as necessary. He acknowledged that Germany's decision to send a third Patriot system to Ukraine in April was a challenging one due to the limited number of systems available in Germany.
