“Our schools abroad are bridge builders. When we connect young people across language and national borders, we also build the best firewall against nationalism and division. Because we are experiencing this again these days in a very dramatic way: fake news, social bots, troll factories, Russian propaganda - Russia is trying to use its aggressive policies here in the Baltics to drive people apart and cause division. We agree that we not only want to allow this to happen, but that we want to stand against it together.”
German Foreign Minister Annalena Baerbock, 21.04.2022 in Tallinna Saksa Gümnasium
