“The course to refuse gas from Russia in 2024, announced by Berlin, today looks utopian,” he wrote on Telegram.
Pushkov admitted that the task set by the EU to completely abandon Russian gas by 2027 is impossible.
Earlier, Deputy Head of the Economic Department of the Institute of Energy and Finance Sergei Kondratyev spoke about gas supplies to Germany, including the situation with Gazprom Marketing & Trading Ltd.
(GM&T), previously transferred under temporary management to the German Federal Network Agency (BnetzA).
On April 1, the Gazprom Group announced the termination of its participation in the German company Gazprom Germania GmbH and in all its assets.
The Ministry of Economy of Germany ordered the Federal Network Agency to take Gazprom Germania under trusteeship by September 30.
