No he's not.
Merz clearly states he wants to send it.
If with conditions you mean that he wants to talk with UK and France about it first for approval, that's hardly a condition but rather common sense.
SPD will always SPD but they don't have the power to stop it anymore.
He did some 180s in other topics but I don't think he can afford to not send Taurus.
But I think it will be more symbolic almost, a very low number of them.
I hope you guys are right. I want the Crimean Bridge to be a smoldering ruin in the water, and the best time to announce Tauri would be after the bridge is down. "Yeap. We sent 'em."
Right completely embarrass your coalition leader who has said numerous times he wants to send them. Nothing could demonstrate the SPD's weak pathetic position than this.😝
It is very hard to find another bunch of idiots like there are in the EU. That's why Putin decided to start his invasion few years ago.
Why in the name of FCK Germany stopped producing Taurus long range missiles!?!?!!? And most of all, WHY haven't they restart the production in the last 3,5 years!?
Painful truth is that nobody really cares about eastern europeans. Western Europe sees us as buffer zone meat. If we want to be safe we have to arm and ready to fight alone.
The UK and Lithuania have both offered troops however UK's contribution is a higher percentage of GDP and the UK are leading talks alongside France, and now possibly Germany, whilst the UK is the most physically protected from an invasion....
Already proven so many times. They see us as live stock and cheap and qualified labor pool. And of course, cheap land and strategic companies they can buy.

The right timing could become cruicial to enabling events around Krim tho.

It should have happened already long ago.
Fears of escalated retaliations (ABC) are present in many minds.
Who is Scholz? 🤔

Here is the SPD whining again that the coalition should decide together.
Do they also not care about Ukraine and see them as meat?
I think you'll find this is the greatest issue ATM for eastern and western Europeans alike.
In terms of commitment....
And too right the UK should btw....
Though the rest stands.
