Two activists surprised their chancellor Germany, Olaf Soltzwith whom they asked to be photographed, as they bared their chests, demanding an “embargo on Russian natural gasnow’, because of her Russian invasion of Ukraine.

Two women who took advantage of the German government’s open day to enter the chancellery had this slogan written on their chests. The office guards quickly took them down while they shouted slogans. Soltz was speechless during the episode.

Germany, which is heavily dependent on Russian gas, has so far failed to impose a full embargo on supplies from Russia.

Answering a question today, Scholz recalled Berlin’s efforts to find alternative energy sources such as liquefied natural gas (LNG), whose first decompression stations could be operational as early as 2023. he added.

Germany, like many other European countries, fears it will face shortages this coming winter.
