Great. Then Germany will have no trouble replacing Russian gas, oil, coal, nickel, fertilizer etc.

No problemo at all.

Can’t wait to see this miracle.

How’s the firewood situation in Germany?
If they need to burn it next winter, better get it cut, split, and start aging asap.

Oil, coal, fertilizer are commodities. One can ship these things from anywhere in the world. There are many producers and many customers. What Germany doesn’t buy, someone else will, and that frees up supplies from other sources. No problem for either side.

But Gas is not really a commodity. It requires long term relationships between partners that trust each other. Russia under Putin started acting “whimsical” in its relationships abroad well over a decade ago. And its gotten much worse.

Pretty that Zerman chancellor Oaf Doltz will be able to pull all this magical energy out his @ss.

Look at the Qatar deal.

Oh, wait - there IS no "Qatar deal". And no Zerman LNG terminals to receive Qatari LNG.

We'll get Harry Potter on this right away!!

Yea that will do the trick. Germany is Russia’s bitch and they just don’t want to admit it!
