The Russia-Ukraine conflict has entered its third year, and Russia's success in seizing Donetsk and other important regions, while the US Congress has been slow to approve new aid funds for Ukraine, a series of events that show that Russia is gradually gaining the upper hand in the conflict. However, a recent recording of a German official disclosed by a famous Russian official has caused an uproar, and even aroused anger and dissatisfaction on the Russian side.
The recording shows senior German military officers discussing an attack on the Russian Crimean bridge, while confirming that the United States and Britain have been actually involved in the Russia-Ukraine conflict.
After Russia released the recordings of the four senior German military officers discussing the supply of "Taurus" long-range missiles to Ukraine and the attack on the Crimean bridge, it caused a global uproar. Although the German side has avoided talking about it, an investigation has been launched, and some ** have disclosed that Germany fears that its military is being spied on or that there are high-level spies.
In the face of the leak of such a secret plan, major Western social media platforms have removed relevant content to prevent further spread of news, and the countries involved have also been questioned.
In this regard, Russian spokeswoman Zakharova said that Germany should first come forward to explain immediately, otherwise Russia will be deemed to have officially recognized this attempt. Zakharova also harshly accused some Western ** and social platforms of trying to help Germany cover up the truth, and she believes that this matter obviously should not be like the bombing of the "Nord Stream" pipelines without follow-up or without action.
It is known that German Chancellor Olaf Scholz has repeatedly and publicly refused to supply Ukraine with Taurus missiles because he fears that they could be used to attack the Crimean bridge. This attitude has been satirized by Macron, France, who said that Scholz had previously refused to provide Ukraine with Leopard tanks and fighter jets, but had to take the initiative to provide assistance in the face of Russia's gradual occupation of the battlefield.
After this incident**, it seems to confirm Scholz's fears that missiles will be used to attack the Crimean bridge, and even lead to further tensions between Germany and Russia.
Just as Germany refused to supply Ukraine with fighter jets and tanks before, Germany seems to have inevitably fallen into a deeper predicament. It is foreseeable that relations between Germany and Russia may be difficult to reconcile because of this recording incident, especially since the four senior officers include positions such as the head of operations and exercises of the Air Force.
At present, in addition to Russia's tough statement, Dmitry Medvedev, who has always been outspoken, has also expressed a stern opinion on this.
Medvedev said that the Germans discussed in detail the actions of launching long-range missile strikes on Russian territory, systematically selecting targets for attacks, etc., undoubtedly the most feasible way to inflict maximum harm on Russia and the Russian people. Thus, Germany once again became an uncommon enemy of Russia.
In general, if Scholz does not properly handle the matter, even if he insists on not supplying Ukraine with Taurus long-range missiles, fearing that they will be used to strike Russian territory, it is clear that Russia will not accept it. After all, this recording at least proves that the German side has plans to attack targets in Russia. In any case, hoping that the conflict will end as soon as possible, Western countries should stop adding fuel to the fire, and at the same time hope that the Ukrainian top leadership will work out an effective plan to start negotiations with Russia as soon as possible. History has proven that all conflicts ultimately need to be resolved at the negotiating table.
