Russia Issues Dire Warning: Germany Will Be ‘Active Combatant’ If Taurus Missiles Hit Russian Targets

As global tensions climb and Europe’s leadership continues to drift away from the interests of its people, Russia is sounding the alarm over Germany’s latest flirtation with war.

The Kremlin issued a clear warning on Thursday: if Berlin green-lights the transfer of Taurus long-range cruise missiles to Ukraine, it will mark Germany’s full-blown entry into the conflict, bringing with it severe consequences, Deutsche Presse-Agentur reported.

Maria Zakharova, the outspoken spokeswoman for Russia’s Foreign Ministry, pulled no punches, per usual. Speaking at a press conference Thursday, she stated bluntly that if Taurus missiles—capable of hitting targets 300 miles away—are used on Russian infrastructure, like the Crimean bridge, it will be considered a direct act of war by Germany against Russia.

“This will be considered direct participation by Germany in hostilities on the side of the Kyiv regime, with all the consequences that this entails for Germany,” Zakharova warned, making it clear that Moscow won’t turn the other cheek.

The timing is no accident. Germany is on the verge of a political shift as right-liberal globalist CDU politician Friedrich Merz prepares to take over as chancellor on May 6. A former BlackRock executive and longtime darling of Brussels and Berlin’s globalist establishment, Merz has made no secret of his willingness to escalate the war in Ukraine.

He recently floated the idea of handing over Taurus missiles—some of the most advanced in Europe’s arsenal—and even endorsed the destruction of the Crimean Bridge, a critical Russian supply line.

Merz’s position sharply contrasts with that of outgoing Chancellor Olaf Scholz, a left-liberal globalist who, to his credit, consistently and despite intense pressure at times, refused to send Taurus missiles to Ukraine, warning it could pull Germany into a war the German people neither voted for nor want.

Even members of Scholz’s own Social Democratic Party believe Merz may walk back his reckless stance once he’s briefed on the full consequences. Matthias Miersch, the party’s General Secretary, hinted that the reality behind closed doors could temper Merz’s saber-rattling.

But the Kremlin isn’t taking chances. Russian media have already published leaked conversations between top German military officers discussing how the missiles might be used against Russian targets. The message from Moscow is crystal clear: Germany’s deepening involvement won’t go unanswered.

What we’re seeing here isn’t just another foreign policy blunder by European elites; it’s a glaring example of the same globalist arrogance that nearly started World War III under the Biden regime.

While American and European families are grappling with inflation, and a continuous flood of illegal immigrants from alien cultures making their neighborhoods unsafe, European warmongers like Merz are cozying up to the military-industrial complex and playing nuclear chicken with a major world power.

Even the Kremlin recognizes what many Americans already know: sending more weapons to Ukraine won’t end the war—it’ll expand it. Russia also aimed the latest insane proposal coming out of Paris and London: sending European “peacekeepers” into Ukraine after a ceasefire. Zakharova called the plan delusional, warning that it would only inflame tensions further.

With President Trump advocating for peace and diplomacy, not endless foreign entanglements, the contrast couldn’t be starker.

If Merz wants to play with fire, that’s his call—but President Trump would be wise to make it crystal clear that he won’t support or underwrite such recklessness.
