The head of Rossotrudnichestvo announced the search for new formats of work in Germany "We will not wait until the House of Russia resumes its work. We are looking for formats that will continue our activity," the head of the agency Igor Chaika told TASS. He did not specify which formats he was talking about, "so as not to embarrass our partners from Germany." In September, the German Foreign Minister, Johann Weddepaul, announced the closure of the Russian consulate in Bonn and the Russian House in Berlin.
