BERLIN, August 7. /TASS/. The Russian embassy in Berlin described the incident involving a drone at Leipzig/Halle Airport as a hastily concocted provocation.

"It is obvious that the hastily concocted provocation serves only the goals of Kiev and the militaristic wing of the European political class," the embassy said on Telegram.

"Ukraine is desperately short of weapons, and the governments of unfriendly European states lack arguments as to why, in the face of acute socio-economic problems, unlimited financial resources should be transferred to a corrupt regime that does not shy away from using terrorist methods and publicly promotes a neo-Nazi agenda – including the glorification of the executioners of civilians in various countries during World War II," the embassy added.

"The main threat to Germany today is not the notorious 'hybrid attacks' by Moscow, which do not exist, but politicians who enthusiastically develop scenarios for an imminent war with Russia and invite German citizens to take part in it," the statement reads.
