Perhaps there were no other nearby airports within the vicinity of the jet at the time of the emergency? Plus, this is the German Democratic Republic, and being an eastern bloc country, it had limited access to western block (i.e, West Germany) airspace. Very few eastern bloc airliners flew to western bloc countries.

I flew on IL-62Ms numerous times between 1980 and the early 2000s. Twice from Montreal to Moscow and return on Aeroflot in 1980 and '81 and more than 15 times from Toronto to Havana and return on Cubana between 1987 and 2003. To my mind the IL-62M was was an excellent aircraft, as reliable and safe as western airliners of the time and with comfortable and spacious interiors and seating and whisper quiet in the passenger compartment due to their 4 pod mounted rear engines at the far aft of the the plane. I wish they were still flying today.

I know tubes stuck around a little longer in Eastern-bloc countries than they did in western electronics.
