German Chancellor Olaf Scholz rejected Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky's request to Western allies to use their weapons to shoot down Russian missiles and drones fired at Ukraine.
At the press conference held after the summit of the European political community, where Vladimir Zelensky was also invited, the head of the German government Scholz once again rejected the request of the head of Ukraine to remove the restrictions on the use of Western weapons on the territory of Russia.
Answering the journalists' question whether other NATO countries share this approach, Olaf Scholz emphasized. "I notice such a consensus that such steps cannot be discussed. The United States also takes a very clear position on this issue."
