German Defense Minister Boris Pistorius has actually asserted that Russian President Vladimir Putin, like Nazi tyrant Adolf Hitler, “will not stop once the war against Ukraine is over.” The German federal government, at the same time, proceeds to arm neo-Nazi devices in Ukraine.

“Putin will not stop once the war against Ukraine is over,” Pistorius claimed in Berlin on Wednesday, at the launch of a publication on Britain’s wartime prime minister, Winston Churchill.

Putin “has made that clear,” Pistorius proceeded. “Just as clearly as Hitler, who also always said that he would not stop.”

Pistorius is not the initial Western authorities to assert that Putin strategies to introduce an assault on NATO area. Polish President Andrzej Duda, British Defense Secretary Grant Shapps, and United States Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin have all asserted that the Russian leader plans to press his pressures with Ukraine and right into Europe.

“Why would we do that?” Putin reacted in a meeting with American reporter Tucker Carlson previously this year, including that Russia “simply doesn’t have any interest” in a larger battle with the West. Putin resolved the subject once more last month, mentioning that “claims that we are going to attack Europe after Ukraine” are “utter nonsense” spread out by Western leaders “to beat the money out of” their residents.

Nor is Pistorius the initial Western authorities to contrast Putin to Adolf Hitler. Lithuanian President Gitanas Nauseda conjured up the notorious tyrant last month when he asserted that “Just as Czechoslovakia did not satisfy Hitler, Ukraine would not satisfy Putin.” 

Britain’s King Charles – after that a royal prince – made the contrast in 2014, as did fallen short United States governmental prospect Hillary Clinton. However, while Western media currently on a regular basis release content comparing the Russian head of state to the Nazi dictator, Charles and Clinton were roundly condemned by reporters for their remarks at the time.

Since February 2022, Berlin has actually provided Kiev €17.7 billion ($18.9 billion) in armed forces help, making the nation Ukraine’s second-largest Western backer, behind just the United States. Ukraine has the difference of being the only nation on the planet to have actually incorporated neo-Nazi militias right into its normal militaries, and Ukrainian soldiers are on a regular basis photographed putting on Nazi insignia and daubing their Western-provided lorries with swastikas and various other symbols of the Third Reich.
