Kreml threatens Merz: You are lying like Goebbels, end like 1945!

In a heated argument between Moscow and Berlin, the Russian politician Dmitri Medvedev sharply attacked the German CDU boss Friedrich Merz. Merz, who was acted as the possible successor by Chancellor Olaf Scholz, had described the Russian attack war against Ukraine as well as a war against Europe in a speech in the Bundestag. This statement was not well received, and Medledew recurred the dark times of the Third Reich by comparing Merz to the Minister of Propaganda Joseph Goebbels and predicting an early defeat. "You are catching bad, Fritz!" Medwedew wrote on Telegram and expressed hope that Merz would end as well as the Nazis in 1945. The sharp rhetoric shows the continuing tension in the geopolitical climate, such as Oe24 reported.

Europe's militarization in the line of fire

Medvedew's statements come together with Russia's allegations towards European upgrading plans, which, according to Kremlin spokesman Dmitri Peskow, are interpreted as part of “militarization” in Europe. Peskow said the signals from Brussels were shaped by plans to upgrade, which is increasingly making the EU a "War Party". The context for this is urgent: the EU plans investments in defense, which should be up to 800 billion euros. These developments were also taken up by Welt where the far-reaching effects on the European security architecture discussed become. While Russia sees itself as an actor in a deputy war in Ukraine, the situation remains tense, especially after the incident in Engels, where a Ukrainian drone attack triggered the state of emergency.

Political rhetoric and military actions underline the growing tensions in the region, while both Russia and Ukraine are struggling to solve the conflict. In the midst of all conflicts and threats, international diplomacy, as it can be seen, among other things through the conversations between the Ukrainian President Wolodymyr Selenskyj and the US President Donald Trump, is an important aspect.
