MOSCOW
Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman on Friday asked the German ambassador to Moscow to clarify Germany's status in the ongoing Russia-Ukraine war.
"The German foreign minister (Annalena Baerbock) says that her country, along with other countries, is at war with Russia. The same ministry does not consider its country a party to the conflict. Given these contradictory statements, the German ambassador to Russia should clarify them," Maria Zakharova said on Telegram.
On Wednesday, Baerbock, speaking at a session of the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe in Strasbourg, said: "Germany is already at war with Russia."
On Thursday, the German Foreign Ministry said that providing support to Kyiv does not make Germany a party to the conflict in Ukraine.
