"Germany can cope with the current energy crisis, and is ready to deal
with a potential Russian
natural gas shutdown, the Chancellor Olaf
Scholz said.
“We live in serious times… But we are
prepared. Prepared, for example, for Russia to largely cut off gas
supplies because of the war against Ukraine,” Scholz said in a video address.
“We
have set up terminals on the north German coast to import liquefied
natural gas. We have been saving gas. We are once again using the
production capabilities of coal-fired power plants. At the beginning of
next year we will have the opportunity to use the remaining southern
German nuclear power plants if that is necessary… We have put together a
comprehensive aid package to support those who cannot easily cope with
such challenges financially,” the chancellor said." RT
