WorldRussian mission says Leipzig drone incident aimed to distract Europeans from EU decline

Karen Malayan, head of Russia’s mission to the EU, rejected what he called unfounded accusations that Russia planted a drone at Leipzig Airport last month. Russian diplomats said the incident was intended to divert attention from the EU’s worsening socioeconomic situation and the crisis of confidence in its political elites, especially in Germany. They also said Russia’s charge d’affaires told EU officials of the “terrorist nature of the Kiev regime.”
