Apart from that, the organization actively supports unfriendly countries’ policies on the special military operation."
"Konrad-Adenauer-Stiftung e.V.’s openly provocative information activity is geared toward worsening relations between Russia and Western countries, creating conditions for Russia’s political and economic isolation in the international arena, augmenting military confrontation in the regions of the special military operation," the spokesman stressed.
