"We are one of the biggest suppliers of arms to Ukraine in the current situation," German Foreign Minister Annalena Baerbock told the parliament on Wednesday.

"This does not make us proud, but this is what we must do now to help Ukraine," she added.

Baerbock told the parliament that the rest of the weapons promised to Ukraine were "on their way."

Germany had been reluctant to send weapons to Ukraine. But Chancellor Olaf Scholz changed that policy after the start of Russia's special military operation.

Berlin had previously prohibited itself from exporting lethal weapons to conflict zones because of its history under Nazism.
