MOSCOW, May 9. /TASS/. Germany is embarking on "a very dangerous path" by refusing to acknowledge the Soviet Union’s decisive role in the defeat of Nazism, Kremlin Spokesman Dmitry Peskov said.

He also described the Ukraine settlement process as one filled with "complex details."

TASS has compiled the key statements made by the Kremlin spokesman in an interview with Rossiya-1 journalist Pavel Zarubin.

Germany is embarking on "a very dangerous path" by once again refusing to acknowledge the Soviet Union’s decisive role in the defeat of Nazism: "Germany is embarking on a very dangerous path. Not for the first time."

The current generation of German politicians is effectively downplaying the USSR’s role in defeating Nazism: "They were even asked who won, who liberated Germany from Nazism, and, if I’m not mistaken, either the spokesperson or the deputy spokesperson could not even bring themselves to name the Soviet Union."
