Agree.
German Foreign Ministry has posted an oval office stage, made by German "Bild" newspaper for election day coverage.
Which implies to the viewer that maybe the Ministry is hintting at something.
BUT:
Germany's Heiko Maas is no Lawrow or Pompeo, by ANY means.
And I presume that his twitter account is managed by some even dumber staffer.
Germany has a lot of dumb politicians, like the US has.
This tweet is proof that they aren't heavy lifters (to put it mildly).
