Speaking at a press conference Thursday, she stated bluntly that if Taurus missiles\u2014capable of hitting targets 300 miles away\u2014are used on Russian infrastructure, like the Crimean bridge, it will be considered a direct act of war by Germany against Russia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThis will be considered direct participation by Germany in hostilities on the side of the Kyiv regime, with all the consequences that this entails for Germany,\u201d Zakharova warned, making it clear that Moscow won\u2019t turn the other cheek.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>Maria Zakharova on Friedrich Merz\u2019s promise to deliver Taurus missiles to Ukraine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThese missiles cannot be operated without involvement from the Bundeswehr, so any launches towards critical infrastructure, including the Crimean Bridge, will be considered direct participation\u2026 <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/tenwqcZ4X1\">pic.twitter.com\/tenwqcZ4X1<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2014 Margarita Simonyan (@M_Simonyan) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/M_Simonyan\/status\/1912882619580031136?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">April 17, 2025<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>The timing is no accident. Germany is on the verge of a political shift as right-liberal globalist CDU politician Friedrich Merz prepares to take over as chancellor on May 6. A former BlackRock executive and longtime darling of Brussels and Berlin\u2019s globalist establishment, Merz has made no secret of his willingness to escalate the war in Ukraine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He recently floated the idea of handing over Taurus missiles\u2014some of the most advanced in Europe\u2019s arsenal\u2014and even endorsed the destruction of the Crimean Bridge, a critical Russian supply line.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Merz\u2019s position sharply contrasts with that of outgoing Chancellor Olaf Scholz, a left-liberal globalist who, to his credit, consistently and despite intense pressure at times, refused to send Taurus missiles to Ukraine, warning it could pull Germany into a war the German people neither voted for nor want.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Even members of Scholz\u2019s own Social Democratic Party believe Merz may walk back his reckless stance once he\u2019s briefed on the full consequences. Matthias Miersch, the party\u2019s General Secretary, <a href=\"https:\/\/newsukraine.rbc.ua\/news\/russia-warns-germany-over-possible-taurus-1744899861.html\">hinted<\/a> that the reality behind closed doors could temper Merz\u2019s saber-rattling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But the Kremlin isn\u2019t taking chances. Russian media have already published leaked conversations between top German military officers discussing how the missiles might be used against Russian targets. The message from Moscow is crystal clear: Germany\u2019s deepening involvement won\u2019t go unanswered.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What we\u2019re seeing here isn\u2019t just another foreign policy blunder by European elites; it\u2019s a glaring example of the same globalist arrogance that nearly started World War III under the Biden regime.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While American and European families are grappling with inflation, and a continuous flood of illegal immigrants from alien cultures making their neighborhoods unsafe, European warmongers like Merz are cozying up to the military-industrial complex and playing nuclear chicken with a major world power.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Even the Kremlin recognizes what many Americans already know: sending more weapons to Ukraine won\u2019t end the war\u2014it\u2019ll expand it. Russia also aimed the latest insane proposal coming out of Paris and London: sending European \u201cpeacekeepers\u201d into Ukraine after a ceasefire. Zakharova called the plan delusional, warning that it would only inflame tensions further.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With President Trump advocating for peace and diplomacy, not endless foreign entanglements, the contrast couldn\u2019t be starker.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If Merz wants to play with fire, that\u2019s his call\u2014but President Trump would be wise to make it crystal clear that he won\u2019t support or underwrite such recklessness.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This could escalate fast.
