Putin envoy and AfD prepare talks to get Russian gas back for Germany: Reuters
The talks could involve U.S. figures and hinge on a Russia-Ukraine peace deal, as Germany still faces tight gas storage and high prices, Reuters said.
- Russian President Vladimir Putin's top economic envoy Kirill Dmitriev and AfD co-leaders Alice Weidel and Tino Chrupalla plan to meet next year to discuss restarting Russian gas supplies to Germany, according to two people familiar with the preparations.
- AfD leaders hope the potential summit will demonstrate foreign policy competence and challenge government inaction on high energy prices, positioning the party to influence energy policy despite being blocked from power.
- Potential summit locations include Israel, the United Arab Emirates, or India, with organizers hoping to involve US representatives Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner to examine reopening Russian Nord Stream gas pipelines.
- Green lawmaker Michael Kellner warned "Germany cannot become dependent on Russia again," while Christian Democrats parliamentarian Roderich Kiesewetter cautioned that reopening Nord Stream would isolate Germany and threaten European security.
- The American Chamber of Commerce in Moscow welcomed the idea as "a positive and timely step," yet any effort to restart Russian gas supplies faces fierce resistance in Germany and among its allies.
