This is the best summary I could come up with:

In an ostentatious show of unity designed to ease the tensions between France and Germany over the threat posed by a resurgent Russia, leaders of Europe’s three leading military powers agreed to step up the worldwide purchase of ammunition for Ukraine and improve their offer of long-range artillery.

The recently elected Polish prime minister, Donald Tusk, was not quite cast in the role of mediator, as Poland has always regarded Russia as an imperialist power, but his attendance underlined the need for a soothing third party.

Scholz said: “We will procure even more weapons – on the entire world market.” This was a reference to a now widely endorsed Czech plan to buy ammunition outside the EU, something the French once opposed on grounds of European sovereignty.

He again implicitly criticised Scholz for continuing to rule out the delivery of Germany’s powerful long-range Taurus cruise missiles, saying those that set limits on aid were backing defeat.

Despite Scholz saying he has a good relationship with Macron, a quiet anger exists at the French president’s rhetoric about troops on the ground in Ukraine, with one diplomat describing it as a self-serving distraction.

Data from the Kiel Institute for the World Economy shows German aid to Ukraine is the largest in Europe, and substantially higher than that provided by France.
