Putin did not threaten me or Germany, - Scholz
German Chancellor Olaf Scholz said Russian President Vladimir Putin had never threatened Germany or him personally, as he did with then-British Prime Minister Boris Johnson.
He said this in an interview with Bild, Censor.NET reports with reference to Euro Integration.
"No, Putin did not threaten me or Germany. In our phone conversations, our very different points of view on the war in Ukraine are very clearly visible," Scholz said.
"I made it very clear to Putin that Russia bears full responsibility for the war. For no reason at all, Russia invaded its neighbor to take parts of Ukraine or the whole country. We cannot simply accept this because it fundamentally violates the European peace order. It is therefore, we support Ukraine financially, humanitarianly, as well as with weapons," the chancellor added.
It will be recalled that earlier the former Prime Minister of Great Britain Boris Johnson told the BBC that Putin threatened him with a missile strike on the eve of the Russian invasion of Ukraine. The Kremlin denied this. Source:

In March, Poland will start building electronic fence on border with Russia
Construction of an electronic fence on the border with the Kaliningrad region. Poland plans to start construction in March.
This is reported by Polskie Radio, Censor.NET informs.
"The electronic system on the section from the Kaliningrad region should cover approximately 200 km of the land border. The contractor has already received the project, which is being submitted to the border service for approval," the message says.
It is noted that, thanks to the system of sensors and cameras, the monitoring of the border will be carried out around the clock, regardless of weather conditions. At the same time, it is not necessary to be directly on the borderline. Algorithms are designed so that the border guard can only respond to real attempts by people to cross the border.
Last year, Polish border guards recorded 11 cases of illegal crossings with Russia. Source:
