După ce a fost acuzată de Italia că a contribuit la scumpirea gazelor în Europa, Germania ripostează
Germany has rejected Italy's accusations of insufficient gas storage before winter, calling them unfounded. The energy crisis in Europe is exacerbated by geopolitical tensions, leading to soaring gas prices. An Italian official noted significant spending on gas storage, while Germany focused on privatizing energy firms. A German spokesperson emphasized that gas procurement does not drive up European prices and that storage levels are adequate even for a harsh winter. Romania's gas storage exceeds European averages, ensuring consumer security despite rising prices due to the Middle East conflict.
