The debate over the supply of heavy weapons from Germany to Ukraine has been gaining momentum as coalition members are dissatisfied with Scholz’s course.
Johan Wadephul, the leader of the parliamentary parliamentary group in charge of foreign and defense policy, said he intended to support the federal government in this situation. At the same time, he adds that if Scholz continues to oppose the supply of heavy weapons to Kyiv, he should expect a corresponding request from the Christian Democratic Union faction next week.
“If the Christian Democratic Union and the Christian Social Union (CDU and CSU) make their proposal now, it will be a break with the previous course. It will be even more – a kind of signal to the fall of the Chancellor. Because given Scholz’s criticism in his own ranks, it cannot be ruled out that the bid may even win a majority in the Bundestag – and this is an issue that directly affects the course of the head of government, “- said journalists.
Journalists add that in this case, the Chancellor would suffer significant damage, and he would have to ask for a vote of confidence, ie to secure a majority in the Bundestag.
