According to Russia, Taurus cruise missiles are already in Ukraine.<\/p>\n  <p class=\"id-StoryElement-paragraph\">Moscow \u2013 From the Russian perspective, the \u00a0delivery of Taurus cruise missiles\u00a0, enabling Ukraine to strike at vast portions of Russian territory, seems to be a foregone conclusion. State propagandist and television host Vladimir Solovyov declared on his \u00a0Telegram channel\u00a0, \u201cI am sure that Taurus missiles are already in Ukraine.\u201d<\/p>\n  <p class=\"id-StoryElement-paragraph\">Ukrainian President \u00a0Volodymyr Selenskyj\u00a0 aims to use the Taurus missiles to target the \u00a0Crimea Bridge\u00a0, hoping to please his Western allies. According to Solovyov, the Germans had repeatedly demanded this. \u201cWe recall how information leaked about a phone call between high-ranking German military officials discussing an attack on the bridge,\u201d he explained.<\/p>\n\n  <h2 class=\"id-StoryElement-crosshead\">\u201cJoint Production of Long-Range Weapons\u201d \u2013 Merz Promises Support to Selenskyj<\/h2>\n\n  <p class=\"id-StoryElement-paragraph\">The Taurus cruise missile serves as the German-Swedish counterpart to the concurrently developed British-French \u00a0Storm Shadow\/SCALP-EG\u00a0. For Selenskyj in the context of the \u00a0Ukraine War\u00a0, these missiles are particularly interesting due to their range, allowing potential attacks on Russian territory. In Germany, discussions about their delivery have been ongoing, but \u00a0Friedrich Merz\u00a0 has now indirectly instilled hope in the Ukrainian president by announcing the \u201cjoint production of long-range weapons.\u201d<\/p>\n\n  <aside class=\"id-StoryElement-intestitialLink\">\n    <h2 class=\"id-StoryElement-intestitialLink-headline\">From Taurus to Leopard \u2013 An Overview of Bundeswehr Weapon Systems<\/h2>\n    <figure class=\"id-StoryElement-intestitialLink-image\">\n      <div class=\"id-RatioPlaceholder id-RatioPlaceholder--sixteenByNine\">\n        \n      <\/div>\n      <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fr.de\/politik\/militaertechnik-waffen-der-bundeswehr-liste-zur-deutschen-zr-93687178.html\" class=\"id-StoryElement-intestitialLink-link\" data-id-ec=\"{&quot;shn&quot;:&quot;ansicht&quot;,&quot;data-k5a-pos&quot;:&quot;west_story_13_photoGalleryLink&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;Zur Fotostrecke: Von Taurus bis Leopard \u2013 die Waffensysteme der Bundeswehr im \u00dcberblick&quot;}\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><span class=\"id-StoryElement-intestitialLink-cta\">View Photo Gallery<i class=\"id-StoryElement-intestitialLink-cta-arrow\"\/><\/span><\/a>\n    <\/figure>\n  <\/aside>\n\n  <p class=\"id-StoryElement-paragraph\">Solovyov of Putin&#8217;s propaganda is likely feeling confirmed by the meeting between Merz and Selenskyj. He suspects that an attack on the Crimean bridge has long been a goal of the West. \u201cThis is exactly what the Brits wanted. The military and political significance should not be underestimated,\u201d he wrote.<\/p>\n\n  <h2 class=\"id-StoryElement-crosshead\">\u201cNazi Scum Merz\u201d \u2013 Putin&#8217;s Chief Propagandist Rants Against Chancellor<\/h2>\n\n  <p class=\"id-StoryElement-paragraph\">\u201cMilitarily it is small, but politically it is huge. The bridge is a fundamentally important object that solved the supply issue for Crimea. Thus, the attack will likely take place on a significant date, probably on June 12. Of course, the Germans are more accustomed to June 22 [Background: On June 22, 1941, the Nazi regime launched a surprise attack on the Soviet Union, its ally in the war against Poland]. However, even for the Nazi scum Merz, that would be too much.\u201d<\/p>\n\n  <figure class=\"id-StoryElement-image\">\n    <div class=\"id-RatioPlaceholder\" style=\"padding-top: 66.72727272727272%;\">\n      \n    <\/div>\n    <figcaption class=\"id-StoryElement-image-caption\">Russian propagandist Vladimir Solovyov (r.) emphasizes the possibility of Russian President Vladimir Putin using nuclear weapons. \u00a9 Fotomontage Alexander Kazakov\/dpa\/Pavel Kashaev\/IMAGO<\/figcaption>\n  <\/figure>\n\n  <p class=\"id-StoryElement-paragraph\">Putin&#8217;s propagandist addresses Germany multiple times in his message. He warns that a \u00a0Taurus attack\u00a0 on the Crimean bridge would prompt an immediate counterattack from Russia. \u201cThis would target decision-making centers in Kyiv as well as a number of facilities on German territory,\u201d he declares.<\/p>\n\n  <p class=\"id-StoryElement-paragraph\">Germany should not harbor the illusion that Russia would not react. \u201cDo you want a Third World War? Read carefully what our nuclear doctrine states. The attack on the Crimean bridge is the beginning of the Third World War,\u201d continues Solovyov. <em>(lm)<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\r\n<br>\r\n<br><a href=\"https:\/\/teknomers.com\/category\/general\/\" rel=\"dofollow\">General News &#8211; 2<\/a>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Startseite Politik Stand: 29.05.2025, 22:26 Uhr Von: Laura May Merz and Selenskyj seal their intense military cooperation.
