Russia has issued a stark warning to Germany over its decision to lift restrictions on supplying long-range weapons to Ukraine.
Moscow’s Security Council Secretary Sergei Shoigu threatened a “massive response” if Germany delivers Taurus missiles, calling it a move that risks direct war.
Following Zelensky’s meeting with Chancellor Merz, speculation grows around German involvement.
While Germany promises support in developing Ukraine’s missile capability, Russia labels the move dangerous and provocative, with some warning it could ignite a wider conflict.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky arrived in Berlin to meet Chancellor Friedrich Merz and President Steinmeier, seeking vital military aid including Taurus cruise missiles with a 500km range. While Merz has shown support for missile deliveries—unlike his predecessor—approval remains uncertain amid coalition tensions. Zelensky aims to secure weapons that could enable Ukraine to strike deep into Russian territory. Germany, Ukraine’s top European defense donor, is navigating a delicate balance as U.S. support wavers, with calls for a united European response and tougher sanctions if no ceasefire emerges.

The United States has made it clear that it won’t continue brokering Russia-Ukraine peace negotiations indefinitely. State Department spokesperson Tammy Bruce told Fox News that while Washington has done its part to bring both sides to the table, the responsibility now lies with Moscow and Kiev. With a second round of peace talks proposed in Istanbul for June 2, all eyes are on Ukraine's response. Will the war-torn nations reach a ceasefire agreement — or is time running out?

Speculation is rising after Ukrainian President Zelensky met German Chancellor Merz to discuss acquiring German-made Taurus missiles—highly lethal, long-range weapons capable of striking deep into Russia. Ukraine faces challenges operating this advanced technology without German support, which could delay deployment by years. If used soon, Moscow may accuse Germany of direct involvement, risking Russian retaliation including deployment of Oreshnik strike complexes. Russian media warns Germany against provoking escalation that could spark a wider conflict.

Russia has issued a sharp rebuke to Germany, invoking its Nazi past and warning against its large-scale rearmament and NATO’s expansion. Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov called the military buildup near Russia’s borders "alarming," accusing Germany of fueling instability. As Berlin passes a $550B military fund and lifts missile restrictions with allies, Moscow warns of dire consequences. Lavrov also reignited rhetoric about “denazification,” framing Germany’s actions as provocative amid high-stakes talks between Zelensky and German Chancellor Merz.

Ukraine launched a massive counterattack using over 200 drones across six Russian regions, forcing Moscow airports to suspend operations. This came after a deadly Russian drone strike injured civilians in Kharkiv. Ukraine issued air raid alerts across major cities including Kyiv, Odesa, and Sumy. Meanwhile, former Russian President Medvedev warned of a potential World War III, drawing a sharp rebuke from Trump’s Ukraine envoy. Ukrainian President Zelenskyy is now heading to Berlin for high-stakes talks with German Chancellor Merz, who pledged stronger military support and lifted weapon range restrictions.

NATO is expected to formally request Germany to contribute seven additional brigades—around 40,000 troops—as the alliance raises its military readiness goal to 130 brigades, a sharp increase from the current 80. The demand comes ahead of a major defense ministers' summit, amid growing concerns over Russian aggression. Germany has already pledged ten brigades by 2030 but now faces fresh pressure. NATO calls the new benchmarks “ambitious,” while Berlin prepares a ninth brigade for Lithuania. The expanded goals follow U.S. calls for allies to boost defense spending and military capabilities urgently.

Germany is preparing its military for a possible conflict with Russia by 2029, according to a leaked directive. Signed by Bundeswehr chief Carsten Breuer, the order calls for advanced long-range strike systems, enhanced air defense, and stockpiles of ammunition. Chancellor Friedrich Merz also lifted restrictions on weapon range to Ukraine, signaling a strategic shift. Germany plans to boost defense spending to 5% of GDP and may end its volunteer military model. The move comes amid economic strain and restructuring of legacy defense firms like ThyssenKrupp.
