According to the publication, howitzers will be delivered to the Ukrainian army no earlier than 2025.
It is noted that the Ukrainian authorities intend to order them from the German arms company Krauss-Maffei Wegmann (KMW).
Earlier, Bloomberg reported that Western countries have not yet supplied Western-made tanks to the Ukrainian army, and Germany refuses to be the first to do so.
Ukrainian Foreign Minister Dmitry Kuleba, in an interview with the Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung, called Germany's refusal to supply Leopard tanks to Kyiv a "mystery".
According to German Foreign Minister Burbock, Germany is experiencing a shortage of weapons stocks, deliveries to Ukraine are on a fine line.
She noted that the German military industry had to start producing weapons specifically for Ukraine.
