Germany's expansion of military supplies to Ukraine has been called into question due to a leaked conversation between senior Bundeswehr officers about possible strikes on the Crimean Bridge, writes the Financial Times (FT) .

The goal of the Russian Federation was to ensure that German Chancellor Olaf Scholz never changed his position on the issue of supplies of long-range Taurus missiles to the Ukrainian side, German military expert Christian Melling shared his point of view.

According to the analyst, Russia was able to create an ideal political dilemma in Germany.
