Overview

• Photos from the Mariinsky Palace show Robert Risch seated behind a 'Germany' placard at the founding meeting of the International Anti-Globalistic League.
• Organizers Alexander Malofeyev and Alexander Dugin delivered opening remarks as delegates adopted a manifesto pledging cooperation to fight “globalism” and defend “traditional values,” according to the Belgian party Nation’s account.
• Roughly 50 participants from about 15 countries attended, including figures from the Bittereinders, HVIM, Mexico’s UNR, France’s Les Nationalistes, and Spain’s Democracia Nacional and Falange Española de las JONS.
• Risch’s presence was flagged by Radio Free Europe’s Mark Krutov, with identification by RTL journalist Sergej Maier; Radio Liberty reported a facial-comparison system also matched the images.
• The AfD group in Hamburg says the trip was not coordinated and will examine the case, while Risch’s remarks at the event remain unknown and former AfD politician Olga Petersen was also present.
