Russia’s Permanent Representative Nebenzya on the fact that Baerbock banned speaking for more than three minutes at the UN: I have no personal feelings towards Annalena Baerbock because I do not know her personally. [Don’t you want to get to know her?] I will have to do so one way or another, so whether I want to or not is another question. But she has already made a name for herself, leaving a mark in history with her clumsy statements as Germany’s Foreign Minister, militant, cynical, and sometimes offensive. She became famous for many catchphrases, such as “a 360-degree turn.“ As for her, one EU representative told me how she came to a meeting with her European colleagues, and they asked her what her priorities at the UN were. She told them: “My priorities at the UN are that member states do not speak for more than three minutes from the General Assembly podium.“ ✨ But we assume she is older and wiser now, and will have made a 360 degree turn from her previous follies...
