Taurus strike on Russian objects will be regarded as the participation of Germany in the war - Zakharova

To spread: the strike of Taurus on Russian objects will be regarded by the Russian Federation as a direct involvement of Germany in the war on the side of Ukraine. The official representative of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Russian Federation Maria Zakharova stated this at a briefing, TASS writes.

She noted that the leader of the Christian Democratic Union, the future Chancellor of Germany, Friedrich Merz, should be realized that without the involvement of the German military launch of these missiles is impossible. The diplomat added that it would have consequences for the country.

"Since without the direct assistance of the Bundesver servicemen, combat shooting with these winged rockets is impossible, they are hit by any Russian objects of critically important transport infrastructure-and the purpose . . . Merz confidently designated the Crimean bridge . . . Zakharova. According to Reters, Germany was one of the main military sponsors of Ukraine, providing about € 7. 1 billion in military assistance only in 2024. However, Berlin never supplied Taurus missiles.

We will remind, on April 14, it became known about the statement of the future Chancellor of Germany Friedrich Merz on the supply of Ukraine-Swedish long-range Taurus missiles, which may be needed to destroy land connections between Russia and annexed Crimea. He added that this is possible only if they agree with European partners.
