Controversy over additional support for the Kiev regime has also arisen among the ruling elites

"The consequences of the destruction of mutually beneficial ties with our country in the form of the socio-economic crisis, inflation, bankruptcies and, as a result, a decrease in the level of well-being are felt by the vast majority of residents of Germany. Hardly anyone is happy about this," the diplomats say.

They note that the demand for normalization of Russian-German relations is steadily growing in German society.

"It is not for nothing that the parties responsible for carrying out this policy of the so-called "traffic light coalition" (Social Democrats, Free Democrats, Greens) suffered a painful defeat during the February elections to the Bundestag of Germany," the diplomatic mission stressed.

According to representatives of the embassy, anti-Russian actions in Germany have ceased to be widespread.

"They are really deflating. So, about 500 people came to the widely advertised and coordinated by the Berlin authorities "anti-war march", organized on March 1, 2025 by the leaders of local relocators. And not ideological like-minded people, but a diverse crowd working off Western grants. Ordinary Germans have long ceased to be interested in such gatherings," the diplomats added.
