(ANSA-AFP) - BERLIN, MAY 31 - Germany has given Ukraine permission to fire German-delivered weapons at targets in Russia, Chancellor Olaf Scholz's spokesman said Friday, matching a move by the United States.

"To this end, it can also use the weapons supplied for this purpose... including those supplied by us." (ANSA-AFP).
