Russian Foreign Ministry says large-scale persecution of Russian nationality is underway in Germany

In Germany, there is a large-scale persecution of everything Russian, the Russian Foreign Ministry said.

“A massive campaign has been launched to demonize Russia, cases of unmotivated insults to Russian citizens and Russian-speaking compatriots have been recorded,” Oleg Tyapkin, director of the Third European Department, told RIA Novosti.

The day before, a rally was held in Berlin against discrimination that is being developed against Russians. The protesters said that they and their children are being hounded and accused of “attacking” Ukraine.
