Germany is 55% dependent on blue fuel from Russia, this is a trend of recent years, said the head of the German Ministry of Economy, Vice Chancellor Robert Habeck during a briefing in Berlin.
"All of Germany's gas supply contracts are serviced. This means that the Germany is about 55 percent dependent on Russian gas, at least that was the case before. There is a possibility of diversification because there are more than 20 LNG terminals in Europe, which are used more actively," Habeck said.
Earlier in the briefing, a representative of the German Ministry of Economics said that the country's gas storage capacity is currently 40-41 percent full.
Habeck added that "all supply agreements from Russia are fulfilled," but it is not via Ukraine and not via the Yamal-Europe pipeline, but mainly via Nord Stream 1.
