Germany swallowed this silently, without comment,” Lavrov said.

First of all, they must stop categorically refusing to present the facts that they managed to discover,” Lavrov said, adding that the fact that information about the explosion was not provided to Russia, but appearing in the German and North American media, suggests that “this is all a setup.” According to Russia’s Foreign Minister, Western attempts to blame “a group of drunken officers”, saying that, together with businessmen who drank with them, they hired someone or decided to learn to dive themselves”, are not “serious”. “Even that some of the people mentioned in the German press, who are Ukrainians, were somehow involved in this, it is clear that they could not have done it alone,” Lavrov said. He emphasized that it took an order from Washington to carry out “a terrorist attack like this.” LAVROV CRITICIZES GERMANY FOR GIVING UP ITS ENERGY INDEPENDENCE August 20, 2024/ LAVROV CRITICIZES GERMANY FOR GIVING UP ITS ENERGY INDEPENDENCE 08/19/2024: 11:38 pm Author of the News: LaborWave RUSSIAN CHANCELLOR, SERGEY… Read More POPULATION TAKES A POSITION AGAINST FINANCIAL AID TO UKRAINE IN GERMANY August 19, 2024/ POPULATION TAKES A POSITION AGAINST FINANCIAL AID TO UKRAINE IN GERMANY 08/19/2024: 11:15 pm Author of the News: LaborWave Ukraine… Read More CLASHES BETWEEN LIBYAN AND CHADIAN MILITIAS ON THE BORDER August 19, 2024/ CLASHES BETWEEN LIBYAN AND CHADIAN MILITIAS ON THE BORDER 08/19/2024: 10:45 pm  Author of the News: LaborWave PHOTO TAKEN FROM… Read More LUKASHENKO AND DPRK MAKE APOCALYPTIC WARNING TO THE WEST August 19, 2024/ LUKASHENKO AND DPRK MAKE APOCALYPTIC WARNING TO THE WEST 08/18/2024: 8:45 pm Author of the News: LaborWave CHOE SON-HUI OF… Read More
