Misleading headline. He did not say that. (At least not in this article, or any others I’ve read so far)

he did not say it in the article, but right after the leopard announcement he said that both him and biden agree that jets shouldn't be sent and that it will not change

I don’t get it. What’s not about combat aircraft? This article also claims that Germany has ruled out sending jets, but does not provide enough of the quote / context as evidence.

The rest of the article is about ground troops and no fly zones.

Germany doesn’t even have any functional jets really so it’s a bit of a moot point

I saw his speech in the Bundestag, that we are not talking about Jets right now (to the question of the AFD guy) and said, there will no no-fly-zones or NATO troops in Ukraine and that Biden agrees there.

Another typical misinterpretation, either willfully or accidentally, as has been the case since the start of the war.
