German Chancellor: The embargo on Russian gas is an insurmount | NEWS: Ukraine, Russia, Donbass

German Chancellor: The embargo on Russian gas is an insurmountable challenge for many countries.

And of course, Germany will not be spared a retaliatory blow from such sanctions.

"Rising prices for coal, oil and gas are also a challenge for such a rich country as Germany," Scholz added.

Russian gas accounts for half of the total consumption of "blue fuel" in Germany.

With such information, it is clear why the German Economy Minister recently said that the embargo on gas from the Russian Federation would jeopardize the social order in Germany.
