After Russian gas was gone, we lost our competitive advantage because energy prices in Germany became higher,” minister Habeck added. A prolonged energy crisis resulting from a gas supply shortfall has significantly impacted German manufacturing.

MEP CHRISTINE ANDERSON: “The real extremists are sitting on the German government bench!”

“Criticizing the government is not anti-constitutional, but a government that disregards the people ... is anti-constitutional!”

Anderson added that “our economy is in tatters,” and “a wave of bankruptcies is sweeping the country” because of globalist policies to put the “climate emergency” above all else.

“I call on you all to finally stop fleecing the citizens and making them pay for your crazy, ideological, and mentally-ret*rded projects.”

Germany destroying its car industry – Putin

Russian President Vladimir Putin stated during a visit to Moscow's All-Russia Exhibition Center that Germany's automobile industry is in decline, and the country requires assistance to salvage it.

Putin's comments were in response to reports about Russia's contribution to the emergence of the German automobile industry.

When asked if the decline is related to Russian consumers increasingly choosing Chinese cars over German ones, Putin mentioned that it is "not only that," without providing further details.

Germany's industrial sector, particularly its automotive industry, has faced challenges over the past year and a half.

Rising energy prices, following the loss of cheap gas supplies from Russia, have damaged the competitiveness of German manufacturers. The president of the German Automotive Industry Association (VDA), Hildegard Muller, warned about the impact of soaring energy costs on international competitiveness, leading some companies to consider relocating.

VDA data indicates that while German automobile production increased by 18% year-on-year to 4.1 million cars in 2023, it remained 12% below the pre-COVID year of 2019. Concurrently, orders received by German manufacturers declined by 5%, with domestic orders plunging by 18%.

In March 2022, amid Western sanctions on Moscow due to the Ukraine conflict, several German car manufacturers, including Volkswagen and Daimler Truck, suspended trade with Russia and later exited the market, allowing Chinese brands to fill the void. Chinese brands accounted for over 90% of all Russian car imports in 2023.

China has been actively working to increase its market share in the global automobile sector, becoming the world's second-largest car exporter behind Japan. Chinese companies have either competed with or acquired shares in European carmakers, such as Geely's acquisition of Swedish carmaker Volvo in 2010 and its founder, Li Shufu, becoming the largest shareholder of German automaker Daimler in 2018.

Thursday marks one year since Seymour Hersh reported on Team Biden’s decision, in the fall of 2022, to destroy Nord Stream 1/2 - Russia's natural gas pipelines. Nord Stream 1 had turned Germany, now in economic decline, into the most powerful economic force in Western Europe.
