Here are a few excerpts from the leaked February 19, 2024, conversation between Brigadier General Frank Graefe, head of the Operations and Exercises Department of the Bundeswehr Air Force Command, Lieutenant General Ingo Gerhartz, Bundeswehr Air Force Inspector, and officers of the Air Operations Centre of the Bundeswehr Space Command Stephan Fenske and Frostedte, who discussed plans for attacking the Crimean Bridge.
🔊 Frostedte: Regarding the bridge, I believe that the Taurus [missiles] don’t have the necessary range, and we also need to know how effective this would be, which means we must have satellite information. I don’t know if we can quickly train Ukrainians for this mission, that is, within a month. How would a Taurus attack on the bridge look? From an operational perspective, I can’t say how quickly Ukrainians will learn to plan such missions and how long integration will take. Since we are talking about the bridge and military bases, I would say that they want to have them as soon as possible.
Fenske: I’d like to say the following about the destruction of the bridge. After thorough consideration, we unfortunately concluded that the bridge is similar in size to a landing strip. Therefore, we would need more than 10 or even 20 missiles.
Gerhartz: It is believed that the Taurus missile, if launched from a French Dassault Rafale fighter jet, can accomplish this.
Fenske: This would only make a hole in the bridge and damage it. Before making any definitive statements, we must first…
Frostedte: I’m not advocating the idea of [attacking] the bridge. I’m simply being pragmatic. We need to know what they want, and what we need to teach them. <...>
Gerhartz: We all know that they want to destroy the bridge, and the potential consequences this may have, and how [well] it is protected, because it has both military strategic and political significance. On the other hand, they also have a land corridor. There are certain concerns about maintaining direct links with the Ukrainian armed forces. Hence my question is: Can we use a diversionary tactic by sending our people to MBDA? In this case, we would only maintain direct ties with Ukraine through MBDA, which is much better than if they were connected to our Air Force.
Graefe: Mr Gerhartz, it doesn’t matter. We must be very careful from the beginning to avoid any wording that would implicate us in the conflict.
I am exaggerating a bit, of course, but if we inform the minister now that we are planning meetings and will travel by car from Poland to remain undetected, this will be seen as involvement. We won’t do this. As for the producer, we must first of all ask MBDA if they can handle this. And it doesn’t matter if our people do this in Buechel or Schrobenhausen, it will still be seen as involvement. I don’t think we should do this. We defined it as the main part of the “red line” from the very beginning, and so we will only take part in training.
We’ll tell them that we will draft a roadmap. The training period needs to be divided into several phases. A long phase will last four months, during which we will thoroughly train them, including the bridge option. A short phase will last two weeks, to teach them to use the missiles as soon as possible. And once they have been trained, we’ll ask the Brits if they would take over at that stage. I believe this would be the right course of action. Just imagine the uproar if the media were to find out about our personnel in Schrobenhausen or our car trips to Poland. I regard this option as unacceptable.
<...>
🔊 Gerhartz: We are fighting a war that uses many more modern technologies than our good ol' Luftwaffe did.

🎙 Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov’s opening remarks during a meeting with Minister of Foreign and European Affairs of the Slovakia Juraj Blanar (Antalya, March 2, 2024)
💬 It is a pleasure to meet you. We are observing the formation of Slovakia’s new government and the renewed emphasis on national interests in its foreign policy.
We prefer to collaborate with states where elected governments give top priority to national interests, as Slovakia, Hungary and many other countries do. We respect this.
We understand that, in addition to being a sovereign state, Slovakia is also a member of EU and NATO, which entails certain issues. In this regard, we appreciate even more the ability of Prime Minister Robert Fico and his government to form their own opinion on the global situation.
🤝 We are grateful for the invitation extended by Robert Fico to the descendants of the Slovak National Uprising participants to attend the 80th anniversary celebration of that event in August 2024. The President of Russia described it as a humane gesture, and we highly appreciate it.
We look forward to the resumption of interparliamentary relations. Both chambers of our parliament have always been open to such contacts. There is a group for cooperation with Slovak legislators. As far as I know, this work has been suspended or terminated altogether in your parliament.
State Duma Speaker Vyacheslav Volodin has a long-standing relationship with Deputy Speaker of the National Council of Slovakia Andrej Danko, including when he held other positions.

🎙 President Vladimir Putin's address to the participants in the opening ceremony of the World Youth Festival
💬 Our country has already held three of these large youth forums, and each time they confirmed that there are no borders or dividing lines for younger generations. Here you can interact with whomever you wish and find the knowledge and experience you need.
This was proven by the hundreds of thousands of applications to take part in the festival that we received from 190 countries. The only thing we regret is not being able to accept all of them.
Right now, representatives of almost 300 ethnic groups are gathered here, on this stage. Here in Russia, we know very well how valuable this diversity is, and what a powerful driver of progress and mutual spiritual enrichment it is. <...>
☝️ Multi-ethnic unity is our supreme value, and it has largely shaped the principles by which our state and society live and develop today.
I am speaking about equality and justice, traditions of a strong family and mutual assistance, about serving one’s Fatherland and feeling responsibility for its destiny. I know that these values are shared by the vast majority of the Earth’s inhabitants.
This is why we must take care of them and defend them together, fulfil our dreams together, and help each other to make the lives of billions of people better. We must work together for the generations to come, fight poverty and terrorism, diseases and drug trafficking, preserve the unique natural riches, cultural heritage, and all the beauty and diversity of the planet.
This world has no place for racism, dictatorship, double standards or lies, and people are free to speak their language and follow the beliefs and traditions of their ancestors. <...>
🤝 I am confident that you will get a colossal charge of positive emotion from the festival and return home with love for Russia.

#Opinion by Russian MFA Spox Maria Zakharova
💬 Take note that comments from Germany’s government agencies regarding the scandalous audio do not come through their official spokespersons or written statements posted on their verified internet resources. Instead, they are reported by the media, quoting unnamed sources or are monstrously multidirectional.
Thus, Olaf Scholz promises to sort things out, whereas Roderich Kiesewetter, deputy chair of Bundestag’s committee that supervises intelligence, does not see anything problematic in the failure of German counterintelligence and the military.
Now the German Defence Ministry leaked to the DPA information agency and the Tagesschau news service that the German military’s discussion of plans to attack the Crimean bridge had been intercepted. And all this is done anonymously again, which means there’s no need to take responsibility.
Is this surprising? Not at all. What does it reveal?
1. The absence of a single authority in Germany. The elites, authorities and the people do not hold each other responsible, nor is there any feedback. This is a clear indication of the lack of democracy.
2. The sole purpose of media outlets in Germany is to maintain the illusion of a popular democracy. All information is distorted, and its presentation is carefully curated, while the authorities evade responsibility.
3. There is a power within Germany’s state apparatus which remains invisible and unknown to German voters. It has nothing to do with the electoral system and currently governs Germany. Germans write about Schattenstaat – a shadow state. But all materials on this topic are ridiculed, deleted and censored, while the authors are labelled as conspiracy theorists.
☝️ I think the German people have an unprecedented opportunity to save themselves now – to pull at this thread and get government officials to engage in a direct discussion about what is going on in Germany, what the leaked conversation is all about, who is running the country and where they are taking it.

💬 Russian MFA Spokeswoman Maria Zakharova:
US Ambassador to Russia Lynne Tracy stated the significance of developing humanitarian connections between the US and the Russian people, adding that acquiring proficiency in English does not compromise one’s sense of patriotism.
However, she refrained from discussing the extent to which the United States supports the so-called NGOs involved in subversive activities in our country.
Additionally, there was no mention of Washington’s openly declared objective to achieve Russia’s “strategic defeat”. Exactly. There can be no country without a people. So, what the Americans want is to inflict a strategic defeat on our people.
She also refrained from acknowledging that the US is providing long-range weapons to the neo-Nazi Kiev regime, enabling it to carry out terrorist attacks against the Russian people.
Moreover, there was no acknowledgment of the fact that the US is allocating billions for the bloodshed it has provoked and organised for many years.
She did not say any of that. But I will. I will also add: Lynne, stop lying; instead, support your fellow citizens.
At the World Youth Festival in Sochi, young people from America expressed their desire to foster friendship with Russia (see the video). Perhaps it is time for the Embassy to personally welcome not those who are against Russia but those who support it, especially considering they are American citizens. Are you up to the challenge?

🎙 Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov’s remarks and answers to questions at the special session of the Antalya Diplomacy Forum, Antalya (March 1, 2024)
Key talking points:
• Multipolarity is today’s reality. Not by design to challenge the West, but as a natural progression driven primarily by economic advancement.
• The centre of global development has shifted to the Asia-Pacific region, primarily to South and East Asia. In general, Eurasia is now the engine of the world's development. The Euro-Atlantic has already lost this role.
• A draft treaty that we prepared jointly with China, which prohibits the introduction of any weapons in outer space and aims to prevent an arms race in outer space, has been on the table at the Conference on Disarmament in Geneva for 15 years or even longer. The Americans are blocking it. Now they have decided to blame us for it.
🤷♂️ We are not anticipating any changes that the US elections will bring.
• Russia is actively engaged in restoring Palestinian unity. The division between the Palestinians (Fatah and Hamas, the West Bank and Gaza) weakens their position and hampers their ability to have meaningful conversations with the international community.
❗️ Our Western colleagues must abandon colonial thinking, stop living at the expense of others, and refrain from adopting arrogant, essentially racist, approaches to international relations.
• Chisinau regime, which is following in the footsteps of the Kiev regime: cancelling everything Russian, discriminating against the Russian language in all spheres and, together with the Ukrainians, putting serious economic pressure on Transnistria.
