AfD Kompakt, June 21, 2021
The Russian government’s invitation shows that our efforts
for a new start of German-Russian relations have fallen on fruitful ground. I
am happy to again take up the numerous lines of conversation which arose during
my first visit and Frau Weidel’s visit to the Russian capital. It is a
particular honor that the visit occurs in the time of the (very important for
the Russian side) 80th anniversary of Germany’s surprise attack on
the Soviet Union of June 22, 1941. That testifies to the trust that meanwhile
has developed in relation with our Russian interlocutors [Gesprächspartnern].
