"Russia has exerted significant influence on stability on the continent," Seibert said. "We are interested in maintaining dialogue with Russia at different levels."

The diplomat said Germany’s position on Russia remains unchanged. "We see that Russia is a player that is very important for Europe and we want to work with it," he noted.
