# Otto Hoetzsch

Otto Hoetzsch (14 February 1876 – 27 August 1946), was a German academic and politician (German Conservative Party, DNVP and KVP). At the beginning of the 20th century, he was one of the founders of East German research and advocated dealing with the Eastern European states amicably. For this reason, when he spoke out against annexationist efforts towards Russia in 1917, the National Socialists defamed him as a pro-Bolshevik.
