It is important to recall that ex-Chancellor Schroeder went to work for the Russian energy concern after having “led” Germany before Merkel “led” Germany.

My German friends used to say they were happy with the relative stability of their government under the SPD and CDU, and now these same friends write to complain about energy prices.

A “smiley face” sun logo against atomic power plants is no answer to being held hostage to foreign-supplied energy. The French sell atopm-powered electricity to Germany, and the Russians sell natural gas. This for a country rich in coal.

Sad and funny at the same time.

I think that this is called "irony".
The New England states are planning on importing Canadian hydro-power due to an energy shortage;
whereas neighboring Pennsylvania has sufficient reservoirs of natural gas and petroleum to supply the area.
I had forgotten that "ex-Chancellor Schroeder went to work for the Russian energy concern after having “led” Germany before Merkel “led” Germany."
Interesting !
