Saarbrücken Tbilisi provocation
what actually happened?
Saarbrücken was twinned with Tbilisi—Tiblis in German—the capital of Georgia, for more than 50 years. When the friendship agreement was signed in 1975, the Cold War was under way. Attempts were made through town twinning “to contribute to peace between the German and Soviet peoples.” On 19 May, Saarbrücken’s Lord Mayor Uwe Conradt no longer wanted to hear anything about friendship. He ended the partnership.
The old friend had given the city of Tiflis no reason for this. So why?
UWE Conradt could not reconcile it with his conscience that the opposition in Georgia is being treated this way.
We must know this. Uwe Conradt is a member of the CDU, a party that calls itself Christian. This party was in conflict with Pope Francis when he advocated peace in the South Caucasus in 2025.
According to the pretexts put forward, he was concerned about democracy in Georgia. Already now, in 2026, even though the parliamentary elections are not until 2026.
In my view, these are merely pretexts . In my view, the issue was the escalation of the Ukraine conflict. And since UWE is a Christian, he can talk a lot about peace during the election campaign
naturally also talking about peace in Saarland, Mayor Uwe Conradt
together with the Bishop of Trier, Stefan Ackermann. And so that it
For there to finally be peace, this scoundrel must be fought everywhere.

Of course, in Georgia too!
Escalation of conflicts and wars:
This is the first duty of a Christian.
But Pope Francis had a completely different opinion from the
Bishop of Trier Stefan Ackermann. He meant conflicts
should be resolved through negotiations, not wars
are. Successful negotiations require prior
détente, for example through town twinning, very much
useful.
