Russia’s Foreign Minister Lavrov praises Scholz for saying no to Taurus delivery
Despite criticism from the opposition and his own coalition, Chancellor Scholz insists on his no to Taurus deliveries to Ukraine. Now he is receiving applause from an unexpected quarter. He shouldn’t like that.
November 20, 2024, 8:24 a.m
Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov has praised Chancellor Olaf Scholz for his rejection of the delivery of Taurus missiles to Ukraine . “I think that Scholz’s current position is a responsible position,” said the Russian chief diplomat at a press conference on the sidelines of the G20 summit. for it by the Greens and Union Chancellor candidate Friedrich Merz . The fact that Scholz is sticking with it in principle is all the more remarkable because he is sharply criticized
Scholz’s position also sets him apart from the British and French, praised Lavrov. In this context, he criticized French President Emmanuel Macron as one of the harshest warmongers. For context: It is Russia that started the war with the attack on Ukraine in February 2022 and that annexed Ukrainian provinces in violation of international law.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyj , in turn, repeated his demand for Germany to supply Taurus missiles to his country. ‘s statements After Kremlin chief Vladimir Putin about nuclear weapons, it is time for Berlin to reconsider its decision, he said in Kyiv . Putin had previously presented Russia’s new nuclear doctrine, which lowers the threshold for the use of nuclear weapons.
Chancellor Olaf Scholz rejects the delivery of so-called Taurus cruise missiles. The SPD politician justified his rejection of the delivery of Taurus cruise missiles by saying that targets in Moscow could also be hit from Ukraine. “If we did that, we would be involved in the war,” Scholz said in April about a possible delivery of the long-range weapons system. Germany must retain control over the destination.
The Vice Chancellor and Green candidate Robert Habeck has now announced that if he were elected head of government, he would be ready to deliver Taurus to Ukraine. The answer to this question is yes, said Habeck on ARD when asked whether he would revise the Chancellor’s decision. As Federal Minister of Economics, he had to make repeated decisions about arms deliveries, said Habeck. “That was part of my job, and those were some of the hardest decisions I have to make.”
Germany also getting their Internet cables cut and comms satellites hacked, along with countless other hybrid attacks.
If he’s praising, we know it was the wrong decision.
Someone’s bank balance just went up a bit
Scholz is the new Chamberlain ?
Lets be reminded that germany was usually among the last countries to increases aupport to ua
At the onset of the war it needed most convincing, and for a decent long time was still open to nordstream
Believe what u will, a lot of high ranking german officials have strong business ties to russia and got and still get rich off them, some make them public like schroder, others keep quiet, but have them
German givernment wouldnt do crap against russia if it wasnt pushed to it by their partners…frankly its a shame, a shame, must be especially hard on those germans that can see the war for what it is and dont push business of their rich elites as the most important thing…they have few alternatives what to vote, all traditional parties are seeped in RU money, qnd antisystenatic parties like afd are even deeper in RU pockets than traditional ones…the green guy now says this, but once he gets his kickbacka he would reverse that stance
jeah if lavrov praises you it’s time to reconsider yourself
It’s easy to blame Scholz, but it is underestimated how much the pro-Russian populists use support for Ukraine as a way to bolster their platform. I have no idea why it’s so underestimated seeing as it is part of the Republican platform.
… But I still do blame Scholz. If you take a clear stance and stare that “involvement in the war” in the face, you can win over a lot of people and keep populists at bay. I liked when Scholz yelled, he should do that more. AfD and other right wing isolationists operate on that tired “our country first” line. It’s harder to operate on that if it’s made clear it’s just counterproductive cowardice.
I think all EU is waiting for elections in Germany
Awesome, as always Olaf. Praises from massmurderes. 👍
Did you know that Lavrov was one of the people that signed the Budapest Memorandum agreement in 1994 that promised that Russia will respect Ukrainian borders and sovereignty? Fun fact of the day.
A clear demonstration of Scholz’ spinelessness…
If this doesn’t show it’s the wrong decision what does?
Makes clear what the right decision is, doesn’t? Russia delenda est
I know russia enjoys to see us divided, but news like that frustrates. Center Europe is living a little too comfortable knowing they are far from Putins direct threat, same time some nations are giving everything they can literally give…
Will Olaf be employed at Gazprom or Rosneft?
When the enemy praises your actions (while still attacking without intentions to stop), you know you are doing something wrong
I believe he did that on purpose to undermine Scholz in Germany and abroad.
A compliment from Russia is a spit in the face of Western democracies.
Allied ties being held strong!!!

Feels like Germany’s attempt to distance themselves from the past has put them on the wrong side time and time again, they don’t have to prove anything but Ukraine needs support, Germany do the right thing before war finds you.
And with what european politcal power Olaf Scholz calls to Putin? Scholz doesn’t have much political power even in his own country. And he is going to lose it at the next elections. Why Putin would care about him?
ruzzian horse is doing it on purpose, to put Scholz in a bad position before upcoming elections.
Feels very 1940 this, remains to see if 1941 and Barbarossa is round the corner.
Nothing says thank you like cutting sea cables
🦵🍒
Hey at least Scholz was a bad ass on the phone right?
Another article mentions that Germany will send “mini-taurus” drones to Ukraine. I hope it’s true and it’s a huge F you from Germany to these assholes.
At this point i will really be fcking surprises if idiots would still vote for SPD after not only Schoeder but also this calamity called Scholz – this party is such a joke – they made most irrational decisions starting with deactivating Nuclear plants ending on calling Putin and stopping his isolation and based on my personal hate for bringing back border control in Schengen ficke du dich Arschloch! – I hope that sinking of SPD wont lead to rise if afd – Merz we are counting on you!
What a selfish, spineless bastard. Just like Merkel.
JFC if Lavrov thanks you there is something seriously wrong
