The CDU and CSU 's election manifesto includes security guarantees for Ukraine that Germany could make good on along with the US and its European partners in NATO .

The greatest skepticism about further arms deliveries to Ukraine comes from eastern Germany and the wealthy southern state of Bavaria .

So far, the government, led by Chancellor Olaf Scholz , of the center-left Social Democrats , has refused to supply Taurus cruise missiles on the grounds that Ukraine could use them to hit targets within Russia , which would make Germany a party to the war.

There is little doubt among experts and within the CDU/CSU that Germany would supply the Taurus missiles to Ukraine with Merz as chancellor as part of an overall effort to appear more robust on foreign policy than his predecessor.
