Sergei Lavrov today denounced Germany’s “military rhetoric”, with the Russian Foreign Minister accusing the country of aiming to lead European re -equipment, referring to Germany’s Nazi past.
“As far as Germany’s militarization is concerned, we have repeatedly expressed our very profound concerns,” Lavrov said at a press conference on the sidelines of the UN General Assembly.
“This is not just a continuous process of restoration. There are also clear signs of revival of Nazism, “he continued.
“Why is this happening? Probably for the same purpose that Hitler had: to subdue all of Europe and attempt to cause a strategic defeat of the Soviet Union then and Russia today, “Lavrov added.
From the rise to the power of conservative Friedrich Mertz as Chancellor, Germany aims to make the spearhead of European re -equipment, given the Russian threat and US release.

“The (German) Chancellor has proudly stated that his goal is to make Germany once again the leading military force in Europe,” Lavrov said. “And when someone in a country that committed the crimes of Nazism, fascism and Holocaust (…) argues that Germany must become a great military force again, it demonstrates a weak historical memory, and this is extremely dangerous,” he concluded.
