The Russian Foreign Ministry is preparing society for a long confrontation with Germany
Russia negatively assesses Germany's new military doctrine (the White Book of the Bundeswehr), but will take it into account in its work.
This was stated today by the official representative of the Russian Foreign Ministry Maria Zakharova.
“We were disappointed to read the new edition of the Bundeswehr White Paper. This latest anti-Russian attack cannot but cause regret, but we will take it into account in our work. We leave this document to the conscience of the authors. It has nothing to do with the true goals and objectives of Russian foreign policy,” Zakharova said.
She believes that the document “reproduces the entire set of unfair accusations against Russia.
“This document, destructive in content, makes a categorical conclusion that Russia rejects close partnership with the West and relies on strategic rivalry. The reservations mentioned in the doctrine about the need for cooperation with Russia do not negate the fact that by adopting the White Paper, Berlin consolidates the confrontational component of its policy towards our country for a long time,” Zakharova said.
