Germany does not renounce Russian gas, but will also receive it from other sources, - Merkel

Germany will continue to receive Russian gas, as well as liquefied gas from other sources

This was stated by German Chancellor Angela Merkel at the World Economic Forum in Davos, reports Espresso.

"The rift around our energy supply is a bit exaggerated: we will continue to receive Russian gas, we will also receive liquefied gas from other sources, we will build a LNG infrastructure in all directions, and we will eventually begin to receive gas from the US," - she said.

Merkel stressed that by 2020, Germany plans to abandon nuclear energy. The Chancellor added that coal-fired power plants would be needed by the country for some time.

"If we abandon coal and nuclear power, we will need more natural gas, and, ultimately, energy resources should be available," she said.

According to Merkel, the transition to renewable energy is one of the main challenges for Germany.
"To my deep conviction, and every year it becomes increasingly clear that climate change is a huge challenge for all of us on this planet," the Chancellor said.

Ukrainian - Ukraine News. Wednesday 23 January. [Ukrainian sources] Censor_news_big3

Ambassador of Hungary to Ukraine István Íjgyártó said during his visit to the Zakarpattia region that positive developments in bilateral relations between Hungary and Ukraine have started to emerge.

Censor.NET reports citing Ukrinform.

Íjgyártó mentioned that even though last year was difficult, he hopes to see positive developments in Ukraine-Hungary relations in the following year.

"It is unnatural for our nations to have strained relations. We have common goals, a lot of similar problems, and it is important for everyone to understand and realize that there have been no misunderstandings between Ukraine and Hungary in a very long time. And we should not have problems today," said Íjgyártó.

The ambassador stressed that the tensions in relations between two countries resulted in termination of important joint projects.

"We would like the progress and economic development we see in Hungary to start in Ukraine. Therefore, we primarily want to continue transport and road infrastructure cooperation with Ukraine," Íjgyártó said. This will significantly strengthen the links between the states, he added

Hungary is ready to contribute to the European integration of Ukraine, Íjgyártó emphasized.

This is our precondition."
