Merz classifies drone evidence against Russia as "court-proof"
Chancellor Friedrich Merz has classified Russia's responsibility for the drone attack in Leipzig as "clear, indisputable and court-proof". As Google News LU DE reports, Merz thereby confirmed an unambiguous attribution of blame to Moscow in the sensitive sabotage case.
According to Merz, Leipzig narrowly escaped a "major inferno". The attack, in which drones and explosives are said to have been used, stands in the context of a series of alleged Russian sabotage acts in Germany.
Parallel to the political debate over the Leipzig incident, hundreds of people demonstrated in Berlin for the preservation of the Russian House after its closure had been announced. The closure of the Russian consulate general in Bonn is also causing discontent in Moscow, according to media reports.
The question of how Germany and its allies should respond to Russian attacks by means of drones, explosives and sabotage is currently being intensively debated politically.
