The wiretapping of senior officers of the German Air Force and the publication of their conversations is part of the information war waged by Russia. This was stated by German Defense Minister Boris Pistorius, N-TV reports.
According to the German minister, the publication by Russian propagandists of the intercepted conversation of German Air Force officers is a "hybrid disinformation attack" by Russia.
"This is part of Putin's information war. It is about splitting. It is about undermining our unity. And, accordingly, we must respond to this with particular caution, but no less decisively," he emphasized.
Pistorius added that we cannot "give in to Putin" now. He hopes that this will not happen.
