“Of course, this is an absolutely sound and correct thought. German politicians think about their country and make similar statements, realizing that after lifting the sanctions, the conditions for the economic development of Germany will improve. Berlin wants to have security guarantees that can give good relations with Russia, ”the senator said.

According to him, German politicians, speaking of the gradual weakening of anti-Russian sanctions, "adhere to global values."

The senator emphasized that in order to achieve results, it is necessary that the position of the German deputies become the "common opinion of the Bundestag."

“Sanctions policy should not become a global conspiracy. Such rhetoric is erroneous and leads Europe to nowhere, ”concluded Tsekov.

Earlier, members of a number of factions of the German Bundestag during a conference on the fifth anniversary of restrictive measures against Russia called for a gradual relaxation of anti-Russian sanctions.

Sandra Weser, a member of the Free Democratic Party, said sanctions should be relaxed if progress is made in implementing the Minsk Agreements.
