    Russian gas was a cheap way for Germany to produce. The short term economic effects were more important to Merkels electability than any long term plans.

    When it comes to gas, Russia never shut off the tap. Instead it was America who blew up the Nordstream energy supply to garner support for a wider war. But now China is producing on cheap Russian gas

    At least Germany appears to heavily invest in green energy since Norstream blew up. Bless the sun for shining everywhere.
