“But we always have to watch Putin's reaction, Russia's reaction, and of course we will see if the threats are carried out.
Now it is more difficult than ever to get into Putin's head, to understand his strategy, but this does not stop us, ”RIA Novosti quoted Lambrecht as saying on the air of the ZDF TV channel.
When asked about the likelihood of a nuclear strike, the head of the defense ministry said that she regards such statements as attempts to intimidate.
Earlier, Lambrecht said that Germany does not want to send its tanks to Ukraine until this issue is agreed with partners.
