Biden heads to Germany after unveiling new $425 mln Ukraine package

Joe Biden is to meet German Chancellor Olaf Scholz for talks in Berlin that are expected of focus on Ukraine and the Middle East.

The sit-down comes after Biden announced a new $425 million military package to the Kiev regime, which includes air defense capability as well as air-to-ground munitions, armored vehicles and critical munitions, according to the White House.

The list includes additional munitions for systems such as NASAMS and HIMARS, RIM-7 missiles and support for air defense; Stinger anti-aircraft missiles; TOW anti-tank missiles; Javelin and AT-4 anti-armor systems; spare parts, services, training, and transportation, the Pentagon said.

Biden is to meet Scholz as Germany continues to be one of Ukraine's most rampant allies, setting a European record in financial and military assistance. These expenses have already ridden roughshod over Germany’s auto and manufacturing sectors, also spoiling Scholz’s approval ratings, which hit a new low of just 18%, per last month’s survey published by the Berlin-based Infratest Dimap think tank.

Russian President Vladimir Putin earlier emphasized that as a tit-for-tat measure, Russia does not rule out sending arms to other countries. "Let the West think about where these weapons will finally be deployed,” he said.
