Russia's anger over German magazine's call to kill Putin


The call to kill Putin in the German newspaper Die Welt caused the anger of the Russian ambassador and the hasty exchange of this news. According to the news agency, Die Welt published an interview of a German journalist with the German media known as Springer, in which he said that the easiest way to end the crisis in Ukraine is for someone to kill Russian President Putin . This type of article, considered a kind of invitation to kill Putin, angered Sergey Nechaev, the Russian ambassador in Berlin. The Russian ambassador in Berlin wrote in a tweet: It is regrettable to publish this issue in Die Welt without comment. Nechaev added: "Some German media with an unacceptable feeling of jealousy towards Russia always crosses imaginable boundaries, this is maddening, but it's not surprising on the part of these media." With the reaction of the Russian ambassador in Berlin to the call to kill Putin, Die Welt immediately changed its content and title.
