The German authorities are acting very unfairly towards Ukraine.
This was stated by Ukrainian Defense Minister Oleksiy Reznikov, as reported by a PolitNavigator correspondent.

He clarified that we are talking about anti-sniper systems and anti-drone guns.
At the same time, the minister clarified that last month Berlin vetoed the purchase and later softened its position on the second point, recognizing such weapons as non-lethal.
“They are still building the Nord Stream 2 gas pipeline and at the same time blocking our defense weapons. This is very unfair,” Reznikov complained.
According to him, Ukraine will now seek to acquire weapons through bilateral deals.
