Several members of the management boards and senior executives of German companies in Russia have been appointed to the new body (including from BMW, Boehringer Ingelheim, Claas, Phoenix Contact, Rhenus, Schaeffler, Siemens and Wintershall Dea). Falk Tischendorf was appointed as responsible of the Russian German Economic Council for issues on the localisation of production.
