Merz didn’t mention the Taurus missiles by name during his interview, but has suggested that unlike former German Chancellor Olaf Scholz, he was not against supplying Kyiv with the missile, which can hit Russian targets deep in the rear or could destroy the Kerch bridge connecting Russia to the Crimean peninsula.
Scholz may be out but his party SPD are still in the coalition and his goons already ruled out sending Taurus. And without Taurus, the entire statement is kinda pointless, as Germany hasn't sent anything else that could reach far inside Russia, and France and UK never opposed using their already delivered Scalp/Storm Shadow to hit targets inside Russia.

Scholz wasn't willing to make the call for delivering Taurus missiles. Merz does seem willing.

Yeah but he's in a coalition with the SPD and if they really want to, which it seems they do, they can block Taurus or break the coalition. https://www.t-online.de/nachrichten/ausland/internationale-politik/id_100720802/wird-die-taurus-lieferung-zum-streitfall-miersch-spd-gegen-union-.html

The SPD fraction isn't unified when it comes to this and the misgivings are about "Not becoming a party to the war" not Taurus as such. As delivering weapons does not make anyone a party to anything all they have to do is to stop falling for Putin's psyop.
