Kiselyov noted that there are no such long bridges as the Crimean one in Germany, so “we will have to collect retaliatory damage by linear meters.”

The Kremlin’s mouthpiece and host of the “News of the Week” program on the Rossiya 1 channel, Dmitry Kiselev, threatened that Russia could strike four bridges in Germany in response to a possible missile attack on the Crimean Bridge, which was discussed in published conversations of German officers

As Kiselev stated on the Rossiya 1 TV channel, there are no bridges “equivalent” to the Crimean bridge in Germany, so “we will have to collect retaliatory damage by linear meters.”

“For all the advancement of the interlocutors, pictures of bridges in Germany do not pop up in their heads. In this rather cramped country there are no such long ones as the Crimean one. But still, there is also something to look at through a missile sight. … It will be a pity, but what to do? Our Crimean They don’t mind the bridge,” he said.

Kiselev then listed four bridges in Germany on which Moscow could allegedly launch a retaliatory strike.

These, according to him, are the Fermansund and Rügen bridges in northern Germany, connecting the mainland with the islands, the Hohenzollern railway bridge in Cologne and the Magdeburg water bridge across the Elbe, 150 km from Berlin.

Leaked conversations of German officers

Russian media distributed a recording of a conversation between German military personnel, during which, in particular, they discussed the possibility of Taurus missile attacks on the Crimean Bridge using a Dassault Rafale fighter. German Chancellor Olaf Scholz subsequently confirmed the authenticity of these conversations , calling the incident a “big problem.”

The Russian Foreign Ministry threatened Germany with “denazification” after the leak of a conversation between Bundeswehr officers about possible attacks on the Crimean Bridge and promised “terrible consequences.”
