Will Germany break the European blockade on Russian gas?

Russian President Vladimir Putin's top economic envoy and leaders of the German Alternative for Germany (AfD) party are preparing for a possible meeting in 2027, with the aim of discussing the return of Russian gas to Germany.

The meeting could take place as early as March and is expected to include Kirill Dmitriev, a close adviser to Putin and head of the Russian sovereign wealth fund, as well as AfD co-leaders Alice Weidel and Tino Chrupalla.

However, the meeting would be conditional on the prior achievement of a peace framework between Russia and Ukraine. Israel, the United Arab Emirates and India are being considered as possible venues for its organization.

One of the main issues on the table is expected to be the restoration of Russian gas supplies and the reopening of the Nord Stream gas pipelines, damaged by explosions in September 2022.

Organizers hope to include US representatives Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner in the discussions. However, a senior US official said they have not been informed or invited to the proposed meeting.

Before the start of the war in Ukraine in 2022, Russia supplied more than half of Germany's natural gas and over a third of its crude oil imports.

The AfD is calling for an end to the boycott of Russian energy. Weidel has previously described cheap energy from Russia as “the secret to the success of 'Made in Germany'”.

But the possibility of returning to Russian gas has caused strong opposition among other German politicians.

Green MP Michael Kellner warned against a return to energy dependence on Moscow.

"We cannot repeat the mistakes of the energy crisis. It cost us 50 billion euros. We cannot want to go back there," he declared, accusing Putin of using the AfD for his own interests.

Christian Democrat MP Roderich Kiesewetter also opposed the initiative, arguing that Russia uses energy, and especially Nord Stream, as an instrument of pressure.
