Details: The official stated that any situation in which the attacked country penetrates the enemy's territory during hostilities, to cut off its supply lines for example, is absolutely normal.

"As long as there are no attacks on cities, civilians, and civilian areas, we will have to accept this, even if we don’t like it, but it has to happen, for example, to cut off supply routes," the German minister said.

Earlier, Pistorius said that the war unleashed by Russia was an obstacle to discussing Ukraine's accession to NATO. The minister noted that NATO should "carefully" weigh any step towards Ukraine's inclusion in the Alliance.
