Putin lackey issues dire two-word threat to Germany as Russia panics over Taurus missiles
Russian state TV host Vladimir Solovyov has made new threats against Germany, warning that if the country sends Taurus long-range missiles to Ukraine, it would become a legitimate military target for Russia.
During a broadcast on Russia 1, Solovyov suggested that Russia could strike places in Germany where the missiles are stored, shipped, or made. He openly said this would mean Germany is entering the war, adding, “Goodnight Germany,” a phrase meant to suggest a devastating response.
These remarks come while Germany is still debating whether to send the missiles. Outgoing Chancellor Olaf Scholz has been against the idea, worried that it could further inflame the war. But Friedrich Merz, who is expected to take over as chancellor on May 5, supports the missile transfer, saying it would help Ukraine defend itself better.
Solovyov, who is closely connected to Russian President Vladimir Putin, is known for making aggressive comments about NATO countries. In the past, he has called for attacks on France, the UK, and Poland because of their military support for Ukraine. He has also said that NATO bases in those countries and others like Romania should be targeted.
His comments fit into a larger pattern of strong threats coming from Russian officials and state media. Just recently, Dmitry Medvedev, a senior Russian official and former president, also warned that Germany’s missile factories could be targeted if the weapons are sent to Ukraine.
These types of threats show how tense the situation has become between Russia and NATO. Many fear that supplying Ukraine with powerful, long-range missiles like the Taurus could push things even closer to a direct conflict between Russia and Western countries.
