In a letter published on the State Duma website, and reported by RT,, State Duma Speaker Vyacheslav Volodin wrote: “Germany’s transfer of weapons to the neo-Nazi regime in Ukraine, which are used against civilians, is in itself a reason for a conflict between our countries.”
RT added that “Volodin noted that German tanks appeared on Russian soil for the first time since World War II” during Kiev’s recent incursion into the Kursk Region. “He warned that ongoing discussions in Berlin on sending long-range Taurus missiles to Kiev, capable of striking targets as far away as Moscow, are even more escalatory, as the sophisticated weapons would require German military personnel to operate them.”
RT then quotes Volodin again: “German missiles will hit Russia and this will be done by German officers. With this, you are once again pushing Germany and the German people into another armed conflict with Russia,” he warned.
