According to the expert, this is not Melnik's first "skirmish" with the leadership of Germany.
“He is not satisfied with the refusal to supply lethal weapons, then he accuses Berlin of distorting historical facts and supporting Russia,” Fedosova notes.
In her opinion, such statements "cause a wave of indignation among German Internet users and the country's leadership."
Fedosova clarified that so far the words about crossing the borders are a statement by the head of the SPD faction and an assessment by the party.
“If for Germany such an ultimatum is really “crossing the border”, German Foreign Minister Burbock should also react to this and call the ambassador to the carpet,” she summed up.
Earlier, the head of the Social Democrats in the Bundestag accused the Ukrainian ambassador of "crossing the borders."
According to German media, before the visit of German Chancellor Olaf Scholz to Moscow, Melnik called on him to give an "ultimatum" against Russia in order to withdraw Russian troops from the border.
