Wadephul meets Lavrov in New York: Germany calls for de-escalation, Russia accuses militarism

Foreign Minister Johann Wadephul met with his Russian counterpart Sergei Lavrov in New York on Saturday morning for a 20-minute conversation at the United Nations. Wadephul called on Moscow to abandon its course of escalation against Germany, Europe and NATO, while Lavrov accused Germany of militarism and revanchism and spoke against a permanent seat for Berlin on the UN Security Council. The meeting came after the attempted attack in Leipzig, which Germany attributed to the Russian GRU, and against the backdrop of European efforts to re-enter Ukraine negotiations. Lavrov also described several European states as being on the path of “neo-Nazism” and criticized the closure of the Russian consulate in Bonn. At the same time, CIA Director John Ratcliffe delivered the message in Moscow at the end of August that Russia was losing the war economically and should negotiate.
