Berlin\u2019s growing military partnership with Kiev shows its Nazi instincts never truly disappeared, the Russian foreign minister said<\/strong><\/p>\n

Germany is proving that it misses its Nazi past by continuing to expand military cooperation with Ukraine, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov has said.<\/p>\n

Speaking to journalists on Monday, Lavrov pointed to recent remarks by German Foreign Minister Johann Wadephul, who said German troops would cooperate more closely with the Ukrainian military on gleaning lessons from the battlefield.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn other words, with the new Nazis,\u201d<\/em> Lavrov said, suggesting that \u201cGermany has longed for the Nazi Emblems and Nazi behavior currently displayed by the Ukrainian army and the so-called nationalist battalions.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

He added that Germany is now \u201cthrowing off the veil\u201d<\/em> that had been concealing its \u201cNazi roots and its Nazi instincts, which, as it turns out, had never gone away.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

Lavrov also took aim at European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen, saying she is not called \u201cFuhrer\u201d<\/em> for nothing. He accused the EU leadership of presenting Kiev\u2019s war effort as a defense of \u201cEuropean values\u201d<\/em> while ignoring Ukraine\u2019s persecution of Russian speakers.<\/p>\n

\u201cUkraine is fighting and dying for European values,\u201d<\/em> Lavrov said, paraphrasing von der Leyen\u2019s past statements. \u201cPut two and two together, and it turns out that European values include the complete deprivation of rights for Russians and Russian-speaking people,\u201d<\/em> including in education, media and culture.<\/p>\n

Moscow has long condemned Kiev for openly glorifying Nazi collaborators, tolerating extremist symbols among Ukrainian nationalist units and systematically suppressing the Russian language, the Ukrainian Orthodox Church and Russian-linked culture. Kiev has defended the policies as necessary for national security.<\/p>\n

Lavrov\u2019s comments come as Germany has deepened its military role in the conflict while promising to turn the Bundeswehr into Europe\u2019s strongest conventional army. Berlin has also been one of Kiev\u2019s biggest weapons suppliers and has pledged to expand training ties with the Ukrainian military.<\/p>\n

German officials have also repeatedly said the country must be \u201cwar-ready\u201d<\/em> for a possible conflict with Russia by 2029. Berlin has moved to expand military service, boost arms procurement, and increase defense spending.<\/p>\n

Moscow has consistently stressed that it has no intention of attacking NATO or the EU unless attacked first. Lavrov has previously accused Germany and the wider EU of sliding into what he has called a \u201cFourth Reich,\u201d<\/em> arguing that European leaders are using the Ukraine conflict to revive militarism and pursue the strategic defeat of Russia.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
