The Kremlin spokesman told reporters that Russia had taken steps in this regard and invited the German ambassador in Moscow to the Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs, RIA Novosti reported.
Peskov also pointed out that the conversation between German officers about the planned strikes on Crimea shows the direct involvement of the West in the conflict in Ukraine.

The Kremlin has accused Germany's Bundeswehr of orchestrating plans to strike Russian territory, following the release of a leaked recording purportedly capturing discussions among high-ranking German military officials. The revelation has prompted scrutiny of Chancellor Olaf Scholz's leadership and raised concerns about potential military actions against Russia.

"Attempts to portray the Bundeswehr officer's conversation as a game with rockets and tanks are a malicious lie. Germany is preparing for war with Russia," said the deputy president of Russia's Security Council on his Telegram channel.

Germany has launched an investigation into the leak of a confidential conversation among senior military officials discussing weapons for Ukraine, revealed in an audio recording released by Russian media. The leaked conference call has raised concerns about possible espionage activities in Germany and prompted calls for clarification from Russia.

Margarita Simonyan, the chief and responsible editor of the media group Russia North and the TV channel Russia Today, said that she has that video and that "something extremely interesting was conveyed to her by her comrades in uniform."

This was stated by Margarita Simonyan, editor-in-chief of the Rossiya Segodnya media group and the RT television channel, in the program "Evening with Vladimir Solovyov" on the Russia 1 television channel.

The leader of the nationalist British Independence Party, Nigel Farage, complained that all seven of his accounts had been closed.

This came after an MP claimed in Parliament that Farage had received more than half a million pounds from Russian TV station Russia Today in 2018 alone.

AFP, KERCH: Russian President Vladimir Putin is set to unveil Tuesday a highly symbolic bridge linking southern Russia to the Crimea, four years after the peninsula was annexed from Ukraine.

The Crimean Bridge, at 19 kilometers will be Europe's longest, overtaking Lisbon's Vasco da Gama Bridge.
