The Head of the State of the Duma of the Russian Federation, Vyacheslav Vorodin, said that the Leopard 2 tank would suffer the same fate as the 80 -year -old Tiger tank in the Battle of Stalingrad, one of the most decisive wars in World War II between Germany and Russia.
"As history shows, not everyone learns from the defeat of Nazi Germany in Stalingrad. (Former Chancellor Angela) Merkel deceived the world community and its people, helping the Nazi Kyiv regime for war," Volodin said.
"Scholz Chancellor is currently going further, deciding to send German tanks to fight against Russia. Their fate will be the same as 80 years ago. Leopard will be burned, repeating fate (tanks) of fascist Tiger," he added as quoted by us from Eurasiantimes on Monday Monday (6/2/2023).
