Many of the reports provided by Russian media or authorities are elements of propaganda. Such reports are part of the information war conducted by the Russian Federation.
The CDU/CSU party bloc won the Sunday elections for the German Bundestag. On Monday, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov stated that Russia anticipates cooperating with the future German government in areas of "shared interests."
As Reuters reminds us, relations between Moscow and Berlin have been tense in recent years due to Germany's military support for Ukraine, which was attacked by Russia.

The Russian authorities currently see no basis for renewing relations with Europe, according to Peskov. The EU countries have agreed on another, sixteenth package of sanctions on Russia for its invasion of Ukraine, which is expected to be adopted later on Monday.
