Responding to a request from Bild, the ministry said it was considering various scenarios, even extremely unlikely ones.

"Considering various scenarios, even if they are extremely unlikely, is part of everyday military affairs, especially during the training of the army," the defense department said. The message is quoted by RIA Novosti.

Earlier, Bild, citing an allegedly secret document from the Bundeswehr, wrote that Germany was preparing for an armed conflict between NATO and Russia, which, according to the scenario of the German Ministry of Defense, could begin in the summer of 2025.

Press Secretary of the President of Russia Dmitry Peskov said that recently the German publication has not disdained the publication of various ducks.
