The meeting lasted only 20 minutes.

German Foreign Minister Johann Wadephul, during a meeting with his Russian counterpart Sergey Lavrov, called for “abandoning the dangerous course of escalation toward Germany, Europe, and NATO.”

This was reported to a correspondent FAZ correspondent.

As noted, Wadeful had long been considering the possibility of such a meeting, as Europeans are attempting to rejoin the negotiations on a peaceful settlement in Ukraine. Moscow had been signaling its readiness for dialogue through third countries.

In addition, according to the publication, the meeting was linked to the drone incident in Leipzig, for which the German side blamed Russia.

Wadeful’s meeting with Lavrov on the sidelines of the UN General Assembly in New York lasted only 20 minutes.

Later, sources within the delegation revealed that Wadeful urged Moscow to “abandon the dangerous path of escalation against Germany, Europe, and NATO.” Incidents such as the attempted attack in Leipzig or other hybrid attacks will not shake Germany’s resolve to support Kyiv, the German minister reportedly said.

Wadeful also reportedly told Lavrov that this regrettable state of relations is not in Germany’s interests. The possibility of a return to constructive relations exists at any time. This presupposes an end to the war, which violates international law.

The meeting between the foreign ministers of Germany and Russia in New York was the first since 2022.
