Germany will continue sending weapons to Israel, the German chancellor said during a parliamentary debate.
German chancellor Olaf Scholz announced further arms deliveries to Israel during a debate in the country’s parliament.
“We have delivered arms and we will deliver arms,” he made clear in his speech to German MPs.
The German government made decisions “which also ensure that there will be further deliveries in the near future,” he added.
However. Scholz left open the extent to which weapons are to be delivered – with some German parties previously accusing his governing coalition of lacking support for Israel.
The German government has been refusing export licences for ammunition or spare parts for tanks “for weeks and months,” criticized CDU leader Friedrich Merz.
Merz alleges that “a large number of companies” had come forward with written documents stating that licences had been applied for but not processed by the German government for months.
After the US, Germany is one of the most important exporters of weapons to Israel.
In the last year, exports were valued at 326.5 million euros – ten times more than in the year before.
