It doesn’t matter what the German, American, whatever other western country’s public wants, politicians lie and then move the goal posts.
I still remember when Biden explicitly said we won’t send f-16s and look where we are.
Putin said a couple of days prior to starting the invasion that he will not attack Ukraine, although it was obvious by then, judging by the troops movement.
Countries ramped up their supplies as they saw what Russia did in Ukraine.
Prior to the war most countries were rather hesitant to send anything.
E.g. Germany only wanted to send 5k helmets to not provoke Moscow.
