The supply of gas from Russia to Germany and France is stopped
Nord Stream 1

Nord Stream 1 no longer brings gas to Germany, because from today works are carried out on the gas pipeline that brings gas directly to Germany. The pipeline works are connected to a Siemens turbine, which was supposed to come from Canada, and which only received the green light for shipment at the weekend. Canada was reluctant to grant a permit for the pipeline turbine because granting the turbine would violate sanctions against Gazprom. But at the weekend the government in Ottawa granted a limited permit, which was welcomed by Chancellor Scholz.

The Siemens turbine will be sent to Germany first, and then it will be installed in the pipeline. Ukraine expressed disappointment for this exemption from sanctions, mentioning that when it comes to gas, European solidarity goes to the limit. But the Canadian Minister for Natural Resources, Jonathan Wilkinson, said that without the gas supply, the Germans risk not being able to heat their homes in the winter, which is why Canada is giving the permission.

The German chancellor, Olaf Scholz, is of the opinion that measures against gas supply bottlenecks will be necessary even beyond the coming winter. In a video message, the SPD politician said that "these days we are concerned about the security of energy supply. This will still be a concern for us in the coming weeks, months and years."

This is not the German chancellor's first warning this week. Last Monday Olaf Scholz prepared the Germans for a prolonged crisis with high prices. In the video message of the weekend, he emphasized that the German government has made many decisions in a very short time so that Germany is well prepared. "We're building pipelines, liquefied gas terminals. We're making sure that gas storages are filled. We're making sure that coal plants are used, to save gas."

While the French Minister of Finance, Bruno Le Maire, said that the government is prepared for a total disconnection from gas supply from Russia, which he sees as the most likely scenario going forward. About 17 percent of France's gas supplies come from Russia.

Since the start of the war in Ukraine, European countries have increased imports of natural gas from other countries, away from Moscow. But the government of Paris seems not to have been able to break its dependence on Russia. The Finnish Center for Energy and Clean Air Studies says France still buys large quantities of liquefied natural gas from Russia.
