German LNG imports from Russia essentially stopped in August of last year, source - statistia. German built new regassification facilities and cut a long term deal with Qatar for LNG.
Its kind of hard for the AFD to focus on getting cheap Russian LNG, when Germany is importing next to no Russian LNG at all. Maybe people should try looking up some facts about a accusation before spreading them?
As a rebuttal, here is Joe Blogs, RUSSIAN Economy Starts to Collapse as Fuel Shortages & Price Rises Cause Chaos in Russia. Half of Russian refineries are shutting down due to the sanctions. Refineries can not be turned on or off easily. The sanctions are making Russia energy production unprofitable, when that is where Russia gets most of its money to run the government and the war. No energy sale profits, no tax revenues, no money to keep the trains running on time or fund the war.
Have you looked at his "predictions" on his Youtube videos page over the last year?
He's a clown.

Sez you. My sources say different.
Off you go, now.
Replacing cheap Russian gas on a direct connection with more expensive LNG subject to spot prices and potential shortages is a valid issue...and since LNG is fungible, Russian gas will likely be part of the equation just at much higher prices to Germany than before.
