U.S. President Donald Trump has criticized ex-President Joe Biden&#8217;s decision to ease the restrictions as he seeks to negotiate a peace agreement between Kyiv and Moscow.<\/p>\n<p>The German chancellor also stressed that while Ukraine is using its arms to target Russian military infrastructure, Russia continues to attack Ukrainian &#8220;cities, kindergartens, hospitals, and care homes.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Before becoming chancellor, Merz signaled he would overturn the ban of his predecessor, Olaf Scholz, on the delivery of Germany&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/kyivindependent.com\/merz-signals-ukraine-could-use-taurus-missiles-to-target-crimea-kerch-bridge\/\">Taurus cruise missiles<\/a>, capable of striking targets at a distance of 500 kilometers (300 miles).
