Crimea will certainly return thanks to the persistent efforts of Ukraine and its partners, who will show determination to oppose the aggressor state. In this regard, requires clarification from the German government the words of the commander of the Navy correlate with Germany's consistent support for the Crimean platform", - the speaker said.

"In Germany itself, Russia's intelligence services are destroying political opponents, conducting disinformation campaigns and trying to interfere in internal affairs. Even an attempt to understand Putin by the German Navy commander must have its moral, political and security boundaries. In this case, those boundaries are grossly violated" - the spokesman of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs added.
