Maria Zakharova accused German Chancellor Friedrich Merz and what she called the “gang” in Kiev of being involved in the same corruption schemes, and said Merz was visiting to discuss the distribution of aid funds. She said the EU’s confrontation with Russia would worsen its problems. Moscow will continue seeking those behind the Nord Stream explosions and views additional NATO forces in the Baltic states as an escalation.
