  • 23/06/2022

Due to  reduction in Russian supply, Germany has moved one step closer to implementing gas rationing.

According to Germany's economy ministry, the nation has activated the "alert" phase of its emergency gas plan to address shortages.

It is the most recent development in a dispute over Russia's invasion of Ukraine between the European Union and Russia.

In reaction to EU sanctions, according to German Economy Minister Robert Habeck, Russia is using gas "as a weapon."

"We should not deceive ourselves. The reduction in gas supply is [Russian President Vladimir] Putin's economic assault on us "Germans would need to cut back on their use, Mr. Habeck added.
