“The day before, a video appeared on the Internet in which a German supporter of neo-Nazi beliefs desecrates a Soviet war memorial in Werneuchen (Brandenburg federal state), accompanying his trick with racist statements,” the embassy said in a Telegram message.

The embassy called the incident a disgusting act, as well as an attempt to incite ethnic hatred.

“The local authorities were immediately informed about the incident.

We sent a note of protest to the German Foreign Ministry with a demand to take comprehensive measures to establish the circumstances of the incident, ”the diplomatic mission added.

At the end of May, the Russian Embassy appealed to the Austrian Foreign Ministry because of the appearance of a neo-Nazi symbol at a Soviet monument in Vienna.
