• Der Bundestag hat sich mit großer Mehrheit für die Lieferung auch schwerer Waffen an die Ukraine ausgesprochen. Das ist zunächst vor allem eine grundsätzliche politische Entscheidung, die offen lässt, welche Waffensysteme geliefert werden könnten – denn die Einsatzfähigkeit der Bundeswehr soll dadurch nicht eingeschränkt werden. Aus dem gemeinsamen Antrag der Koalitionsparteien und der Union:

Der Deutsche Bundestag fordert die Bundesregierung auf,
1. alle Bemühungen der ukrainischen Regierung, in direkten Verhandlungen mit der russischen Führung einen Waffenstillstand zu erzielen, zu unterstützten, wobei klar sein muss, dass es keine Verhandlungen über die Köpfe der Ukrainerinnen und Ukrainer hinweg geben darf. Falls es zum Abschluss eines Abkommens kommt, muss Deutschland gemeinsam mit den USA, Kanada und anderen NATO- und EU-Partnern bereit sein, aktiv dazu beitragen, seine Einhaltung zu gewährleisten;
2. die Lieferung benötigter Ausrüstung an die Ukraine fortzusetzen und wo möglich zu beschleunigen und dabei auch die Lieferung auf schwere Waffen und komplexe Systeme etwa im Rahmen des Ringtausches zu erweitern, ohne die Fähigkeiten Deutschlands zur Bündnisverteidigung zu gefährden;
3. zu prüfen, ob weitere Waffen abgegeben werden können und aktiv auf andere Länder zuzugehen, um ihnen einen Ringtausch anzubieten;
4. in Abstimmung und Kooperation mit unseren Partnern kurz-, mittel- und langfristige die Ausbildung weiter zu unterstützen, dies umfasst auch die Bedienung der gelieferten Waffensysteme in Deutschland oder auf NATO-Gebiet;
5. Ausrüstungslücken bei der Bundeswehr, die durch die Abgabe an die Ukraine entstanden sind, schnellstmöglich zu schließen;

Für den Antrag stimmten 586 Parlamentarier, 100 sprachen sich dagegen aus und sieben enthielten sich.

• Der ukrainische Präsidentenberater Michail Podoljak verwies auf das Recht der Ukraine, zur Gegenwehr gegen die russischen Angriffe auch Ziele in Russland selbst anzugreifen:

• Die USA sagen weitere 33 Milliarden US-Dollar Hilfe für die Ukraine zu – sowohl militärisch als auch wirtschaftliche und humanitäre Hilfe. Aus einem Briefing der US-Regierung dazu:

As you know, the conflict has now entered a different phase, and one that is no less dangerous, as Russia shifts the focus of its assault to Ukraine’s south and east.
As we have said, this fight could well last months or more. This conflict will continue to test our unity and our collective resolve to provide Ukraine what it needs to succeed. (…)
Today, the President will speak about the critical resources required for the United States to maintain our high level of assistance over the months to come. The President’s funding request is what we believe is needed to enable Ukraine’s success over the next five months of this war. And we have every expectation that our partners and allies, particularly those of the G7, as well as many other countries, will continue to provide comparable levels of assistance going forward so that each of us is doing our part. (…)
Let me quickly walk through the three key areas of this $33 billion supplemental request.
So, first, we’re calling on Congress to provide over $20 billion in military and other security assistance to keep weapons and ammunition flowing to the Ukrainian people. And this includes $5 billion in additional drawdown authority, $6 billion for the Ukraine Security Assistance Initiative, and $4 billion for the State Department’s Foreign Military Financing program.
Second, we’re calling on Congress to provide an additional $8.5 billion in economic assistance to help the government of Ukraine respond to the immediate crisis and continue to provide basic services to the Ukrainian people.
And third, we’re seeking — this provides $3 billion in additional humanitarian assistance and food security funding. And these resources will provide wheat and other commodities to people in need, build countries’ resilience to the global food supply and price shock, and provide lifesaving aid to displaced people — people displaced by Putin’s war in Ukraine.
