“The German Defense Minister A. Kramp-Karrenbauer demonstrated disinterest in a serious dialogue with Moscow on de-escalation on the eve of the NATO meeting,” the spokesman for the Russian Foreign Ministry Maria Zakharova said in a comment.
She expressed the hope that "there will be reasonable leaders in Germany who can keep their defense minister from a reckless desire to test the reliability of the Russian Armed Forces."
Earlier, the Russian Defense Ministry summoned the German military attaché, who was handed a note after the words of German Defense Minister Annegret Kramp-Karrenbauer about the possibility of using nuclear weapons against Russia.
The Bundestag criticized Annegret Kramp-Karrenbauer's statement about the possibility of using nuclear weapons against Russia.
