We are closing in on five years of diplomatic isolation of Russia, but German Foreign Minister Johann Wadephul decided, that Germany should give Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov the UN photo op he needed for Russian propaganda media, to demonstrate that Russia is back on the world stage.
Wahnsinnig!

The "Wandel durch Handel" strategy from the past clearly did not work. Why would "Wandel durch Diplomatie" allover sudden work? It won't. There is clearly much more needed to get Russia to stop the attacks on Ukraine. This photo op is not a solution that will help to stop the war.
