The radicals believe that Rheinmetall is deliberately accumulating "various old types of tanks" that "can now be sold to Ukraine along with ammunition for a huge profit." Thus, "Rheinmetall plans, produces and kills not only on a national scale". German special services are investigating the arson and verifying the authenticity of the statement.
