Russia’s Maria Zakharova: Czech arms factories working for Ukraine like they did for the Nazis

Russian foreign ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova on Monday compared the work of Czech arms factories helping to arm Ukraine to armaments factories in the occupied Protectorate forced to produce weapons for the German Third Reich. Zakharova said it was outrageous that Czechia had upgraded tanks from Morocco and then handed them over to the “neo-Nazi” Ukrainian government.

"We observe with regret that the Russian Foreign Ministry has become a ministry of lies and war," Czech Foreign Ministry spokesman Daniel Drake said in response to the attack.
