Demonstrators undress in front of Olaf Scholz

During a tour of Chancellor Olaf Scholz (SPD) in the garden of the Chancellery, there was an incident at the government’s open day. Two demonstrators stood next to Scholz on Sunday wanting a selfie, but then took off their tops, revealing calls for a gas embargo on Russia.

“Gas embargo now,” the two women wrote on their bare chests. They were immediately pushed aside by security guards.

Demonstrators are demanding a gas embargo from Scholz

The federal government has so far rejected a gas embargo against Russia on the grounds that a secure energy supply cannot otherwise be guaranteed. However, Russia, for its part, has now greatly reduced deliveries.

At a public discussion, Scholz also referred to alternative import routes, including new liquid gas terminals, of which “we can hope that we can put the first ones into operation at the beginning of next year and others over the course of the year. “Then we will have our problem of security of supply at some point solved at the beginning of 2024,” the Chancellor continued.
