The Russian Foreign Minister, Sergei Lavrov, accused Germany of "starting a real war" against Russia. The accusation comes after Berlin attributed responsibility to Moscow for an incident in Leipzig.
This is not the first time Lavrov has used this rhetoric. The Russian leader again mentioned the issue of "nazism" in the context of the conflict between the two countries.
Tension between Russia and Germany has been intensifying, with this new incident representing another breaking point in diplomatic relations between Moscow and Berlin.
