Lavrov alleges 'metastases' of Nazi ideology among EU, NATO members including Germany
Russia's foreign minister made the claim in remarks reported by TASS, continuing a pattern of similar rhetoric from Russian officials.

Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said that what he called 'metastases' of Nazi ideology are visible among European Union and NATO member states, including Germany, according to TASS.
Lavrov said this 'inhumane ideology' can be seen in other countries on the European continent, 'primarily among EU and NATO members, in the Baltic countries and in Germany as well,' adding that this was 'particularly concerning.'
The remarks are part of a broader pattern of rhetoric from Russian officials accusing Western and Baltic states of tolerating or reviving Nazi-era ideology, characterizations that the countries named have rejected.
TASS did not report a response from German, EU or NATO officials to Lavrov's comments.
