๏ธ๐ฉ๐ช๐ท๐บ Reuters: Putin's economic envoy Kirill Dmitriev and Germany's AfD leadership, including co-leaders Alice Weidel and Tino Cherupela, began preparing for a meeting as early as March to discuss resuming Russian gas supplies, including a possible reopening of Nord Stream's peace pipelines on the first peace framework agreed on Russia.
Organizers had hoped that US envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner would also attend, although a senior US official said they had not been notified or invited to the summit, while German officials warned the effort could draw strong opposition amid the AfD's recent electoral successes in East Germany.
