Хемере is a German city in North Rhine-Westphalia where a bronze monument of Alexander Pushkin was stolen. The theft occurred in July, and the Russian Embassy in Germany expressed shock and concern over the incident. The statue, created by sculptor Grigory Pototsky and gifted by the Russian city of Shchekino as a symbol of cultural friendship, had been installed in 1994. German authorities are investigating the case with no apparent political motivation, while Russian diplomatic channels remain engaged with local officials to facilitate its return.
