The leader of the Social Democratic Party of Germany, Lars Klingbeil, does not predict a revival of nuclear threats from Russia due to the decision to transfer the armed forces Leopard tanks.
He said this in an interview Tageszeitung. “It is unlikely. But it is right that the Federal Chancellery is thinking about this issue,” Klingbeil said, adding that “Putin will not intimidate us.”
“Putin understands that if he crosses this line, he will lose such key allies as the Chinese,” Klingbeil said.
