[Chernovec] Russian Foreign Ministry: East Germany was denazified at one time, but Western Germany was not. It became an oasis for the preservation of Nazi ideology. Germany is ruled by neo-Nazis.

Commenting on a scandalous audio recording in which senior Bundeswehr officers discussed possible attacks on the Crimean Bridge with Taurus missiles, Zakharova called the relevant topic “the issue of the tragedy of German society, which is controlled by these neo-Nazis.”

"And these are, of course, neo-Nazis, 100%. Just look at [German Foreign Minister] Annalena Bärbock, who is the granddaughter of a Nazi, and who says she is proud of her grandfather. Look at how many people within the German government are in one way or another associated with Nazi past of their ancestors. And why? For one simple reason. East Germany, which was in the zone of influence of the Soviet Union, the Warsaw Pact, was indeed denazified. And West Germany, unfortunately, became an oasis for preserving not only these most immediate criminals who were not brought to justice, but also the ideology itself. That is why now we see the reincarnation of Nazism and fascism," the diplomat noted.

P.S.
The Germans are idiots. They will never see such a Germanophile as Putin at the helm of Russia. They wasted such a chance for their country.

#8  "But one thing is certain, it wasn't the Russians who started that war"

Actually the Soviet Union enabled that war with the Molotov–Ribbentrop Pact. It attacked Poland a few weeks later than the Germans. It then attacked Finland. Until July 1941 it provided Germany with everything it needed.

Actually Germany could not have started WW2 without Soviet help.

And I'm quite surprised that you'd copy the Russian narrative about "starting a war against Russia". It's NATO which is almost begging Germany to supply Ukraine with Taurus cruises missiles.

#6  Come on now. German Nazis weren't that bad. At least they didn't start WW2. That was Poland as your Supreme Leader pointed out.

Yeah, that statement about Poland was twisted. But one thing is certain, it wasn't the Russians who started that war, it was the Russians who finished it. Now they look like they're about to finish another war in Ukraine. You should be careful not to start another one. Americans are not obligated to come to your defense if you're the ones who start it.
