That's PR. Germany is one of the big weapons suppliers. For some reason we don't want to ship tanks, which the Ukrainians really want (I've read it's because our government is terribly afraid of German-built tanks rolling into Russia, which would give the populace there a visceral reaction).

But everything smaller than a tank, including lots of hardware that proved extremely valuable in this war, is being shipped.
