Germany must cut military aid to Ukraine due to a lack of new funds as part of its current budget planning. The newspaper Frankfurter Allgemeine Sonntagszeitung writes about this, citing a letter from German Finance Minister Christian Lindner sent to the heads of the German Ministry of Defense and Foreign Ministry Boris Pistorius and Annalena Bärbock.
According to the publication, tough austerity measures introduced by the Office of the Federal Chancellor and the Ministry of Finance have led to the fact that additional requests from the Ministry of Defense for military assistance to Ukraine will no longer be approved at the request of Chancellor Olaf Scholz.
Already approved military aid continues to flow to Kyiv, but its volumes could be nearly halved next year and could fall to less than a tenth of current levels by 2027.
