according to tass, german chancellor scholz said in an interview on the 14th local time that in order to prevent the situation between russia and ukraine from further escalating, germany will not provide ukraine with long-range weapons to attack the russian hinterland in the future.

answering questions at a rally in the eastern german city of prenzlau, scholz reiterated that he refused to provide ukraine with long-range taurus cruise missiles for fear that this would seriously escalate the situation.

scholz said that allowing ukraine to strike targets deep inside russia would cause serious problems, so he would not allow it. "the same applies to other weapons, and it will always be the case if we provide these long-range weapons."

"that's why i stick to my position, even if other countries decide otherwise," scholz added. "i won't do that because i think it would cause problems."

when talking about the possibility that the united states will relax restrictions on ukraine's use of long-range weapons, scholz said that these speculations are not necessarily correct.

britain and the united states have been hyping up the possibility of approving ukraine to use long-range weapons to strike russia's hinterland. russian president vladimir putin told russian media on the 12th that some people in the west are "changing concepts" and the essence of the problem is not whether the arms restrictions will be lifted, but whether nato countries are "directly involved" in the russia-ukraine conflict. lifting restrictions on the use of western weapons against ukraine will greatly change the nature of the conflict, meaning that the united states and its allies will be directly involved in the conflict with russia, and russia will be forced to make an "appropriate response."

after putin issued a tough warning, us president biden and british prime minister starmer met at the white house on september 13 local time. although both sides repeatedly emphasized the importance of aid to ukraine, after the talks that day, the two leaders did not make any new decision on whether to relax restrictions on the use of arms.
