💨 Abstract

The Kremlin has expressed hope for a more constructive relationship with a new German government led by Friedrich Merz, as his CDU/CSU bloc won the election. The Kremlin seeks areas of mutual interest, but notes that it will have to wait and see how the relationship unfolds. Ties have been strained since Germany's military assistance to Ukraine and a reduction in Germany's dependency on Russian gas.
