Since Russia invaded Ukraine, Germany has dropped a traditionally pacifist stance and become one of Ukraine's biggest military backers, delivering a wide array of weaponry to Kyiv. Rheinmetall has received a boost from the Ukraine war, posting record results in 2022 and joining Frankfurt's blue-chip DAX index in March 2023. (Photo by Axel Heimken/AFP Photo)
