Two activists surprised German Chancellor Olaf Scholz following they came to take a picture with him, and without warning took off their shirts and appeared naked to demand the Russian “gas ban”.
The two women took advantage of the Open Doors events organized by the German government at the weekend to reach Schulz at the Chancellery in Berlin and denounce Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. And soon security personnel escorted them abroad.
Germany, which relies heavily on Russian gas, has not yet been able to completely ban the import of gas from Russia.
In response to questions from the public earlier in the day, Schulz presented his government’s efforts to find alternative energy sources, including liquefied natural gas, which Berlin is preparing to build its first stations, which are likely to come into service at the beginning of 2023.
“This might solve the problem of ensuring supplies in early 2024,” the German chancellor declared.
Germany, like other European neighbors, is preparing for a potentially harsh winter due to a lack of energy supplies.
