Jim Jatras, a former diplomat at the US State Department, said Germany's Taurus long-range missiles could cause a new phase of escalation if they were used in Ukraine.
The most likely scenario is still the use of long-range missiles, which could be the German Taurus missile, Jarats pointed out, RIA Novosti reported.
He added that Western countries could use many other options to aggravate the situation.
We can always face provocations under false flags. Mi-6 is probably thinking of something,” he pointed out.
Previously, German media reported that Berlin refused to provide Taurus cruise missiles to Kiev but decided to increase financial support for the country by 3 billion euros by 2026.
The Kremlin explained that German intervention in the conflict in Ukraine is not new to Russia.
