While France and Britain have passed on their own long-range SCALP/Storm Shadow missiles to Ukraine, Chancellor Scholz (SPD, S&D) has mystified allies with his persistent reluctance to deliver equivalent German Taurus missiles.

Long-range weapons to strike behind enemy lines are among the most urgently needed weapons, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy emphasised at the Munich Security Conference (MSC) last weekend.

Did everyone decide to copy Trumps playbook? Can we have the adults back in the room please?

Why not just answer the question?
