According to the leading analyst of the National Energy Security Fund (NESF) Igor Yushkov, the German economy is most strongly tied in the European Union to pipeline gas supplies from the Russian Federation. If the EU authorities nevertheless decide to declare an embargo, then Berlin will have nothing to replace Russian gas, he added.
The expert stressed that it is Germany that is the largest buyer of Russian gas, while there is not a single LNG terminal in the country, that is, gas can only be supplied through a pipeline.
Germany also receives gas through pipes from Norway and the Netherlands. The volume of Dutch supplies is minimal, the source said, adding that Berlin will not be able to find a replacement for Russian gas.
