Moscow
MEPs from Sahra Wagenknecht's party, Ruth Firmenich and Michael von der Schulenburg, have returned to Moscow for meetings with Russian officials and to continue negotiations from last year. They aim to promote dialogue between the EU and Russia.
The claims regarding the MEPs' visit to Moscow for meetings and their intentions to continue dialogues with Russia are not strongly evidenced. One claim about these meetings finds weak support through mentions of Victory Day commemorations in Moscow, but lacks details about scheduled meetings with specific Russian officials. Other claims find partial context in claims of open dialogue windows between Germany and Russia but do not directly support the specifics of continued negotiations by the particular MEPs. No concrete evidence confirms the meetings or intentions specifically attributed to Ruth Firmenich and Michael von der Schulenburg.
