00:00Is the US blocking transfers of Taurus missiles to Ukraine?

00:09Claims are circulating on social media that the US has prohibited Germany from transferring Taurus cruise missiles to Ukraine,

00:18reportedly because they contain American critical materials.

00:22We verified the claim and found no evidence to corroborate it.

00:25Taurus missiles are long-range cruise missiles that can hit targets 500 kilometers away,

00:32a much longer range than the missiles Ukraine currently has.

00:36They are also difficult to intercept.

00:38For months, outgoing Chancellor Olaf Scholz has refused to transfer the weapons to Ukraine's armed forces

00:44for fear of dragging Germany into the war.

00:48But Chancellor-in-waiting Friedrich Merz has said he's willing to send them.

00:52Days before he's expected to take office, Kyiv is pressing Berlin to make the deliveries happen.

00:59Now, unconfirmed reports are circulating widely on X, Telegram and TikTok,

01:05claiming the United States is blocking Germany's delivery of the missiles under Merz.

01:10We trace the story back to pro-Kremlin platform TopWar.ru.

01:16The article claims that two military companies had notified Berlin through the US State Department

01:22of a ban on the deliveries of these missiles to Kyiv.

01:26Yet there is no evidence to date that corroborates that claim.

01:30Asked by Euronews about the reports,

01:32a spokesperson for the German Federal Ministry of Defense declined to comment on speculation

01:37or on discussions with our partners.

01:40Trump has previously criticised Ukraine's use of US-supplied missiles for attacks deep into Russia,

01:47describing it as crazy because it escalates the war.
