Germany has decided to shut down the Russian Consulate General in Bonn and take additional steps against Russia following a drone attack at Leipzig Airport. This comes after Foreign Minister Johann Wadephul, in a joint press conference with Interior Minister Alexander Dobrindt, described the incident as part of a series of efforts by Russia to destabilize and intimidate Germany and other European nations.
Wadephul stated that Russia's actions, including spreading disinformation and aggression, reveal a lack of willingness to compromise on peace. Germany remains committed to its security policies and solidarity with Ukraine, while maintaining its defense cooperation with allies. The Russian Consulate in Bonn will close on September 18, and there will be a termination of the lease for the Russian House in Berlin.
