German foreign minister admits to CNN’s Christiane Amanpour that Berlin sent some outdated, “not really functioning” weapons to Ukraine https://edition.cnn.com/videos/world/2023/09/25/exp-annalena-baerbock-amanpour-intw-09251pseg1-cnni-world.cnn

@kevinrothrock I like to read your posts. That’s why I’m surprised by the headline you chose. First of all, I haven’t heard Baerbock say that in the video clip you linked. Secondly, it is no secret that Germany sent weapons it wasn’t using anymore, like the Gepard tank. There was a big problem with ammunition supply, which Germany is trying to mend. The way you phrase it, it sounds like Germany intentionally sent bad weapons. Did you mean to say that?

@kevinrothrock That clears it up, thanks. Still, „admits“ sounds like she’s being accused and defends herself. To me the article sounds as if she’s trying to right something that went wrong. Baerbock at least in the German public is a stout ally of Ukraine, as are most of the Greens in general.
