German Chancellor Olaf Scholz said on Saturday that a thorough, intensive and swift investigation was underway in connection with the leaked conversation between German military officers on security topics concerning Russia and Ukraine.
On Friday, editor-in-chief of RT and Rossiya Segodnya, Sputnik's parent media group, published the text and the audio of a conversation among four Bundeswehr representatives discussing a potential attack on the Crimean Bridge with Taurus missiles. The talk, which took place on February 19, involved Inspector of the German air force Ingo Gerhartz, Brig. Gen. Frank Graefe, head of the operations and exercises department at the air force command in Berlin, and two employees of the air operations center of the Bundeswehr Space Command.
"This is now being investigated very thoroughly, very intensively and very quickly. That is what is necessary," Scholz told a German news agency DPA correspondent during his visit to Italy.
Earlier in the day, DPA reported that the leaked conversation between German military officers on security topics concerning Russia and Ukraine was authentic. According to the report the German military officers are believed to have held the conversation on the CISCO Webex platform.
