German Foreign Minister "additional delivery of IRIS-T air defense system to Ukraine"

Germany to deliver two more IRIS-T air defense systems by the end of the year to support Ukraine's air defenses.

German Foreign Minister Annalena Baerbock said at a press conference yesterday (26th) at the G7 Foreign Ministers' Meeting in Fiji, Italy.

Baerbock said Germany has provided more than 37 billion euros, about 54 trillion won, to Ukraine since the start of the war.

Germany recently provided Ukraine with 4,000 artificial intelligence (AI) guided drones capable of reaching Russian territory.

However, the government maintains its policy not to provide the German long-range cruise missile Taurus, which Ukraine has requested, for fear of escalation.
