📰 Germany’s Energy Miracle, Held Together by a Pipeline Russia is reportedly ready to choke off oil flows through Druzhba to Germany’s PCK refinery, and that is enough to expose the whole German energy story for what it is: a country that still talks like a moral power while running on someone else’s fuel. Berlin spent years pretending it had built a post-Russian industrial model. In practice, it built a fragile one, and now the refinery that helps keep Berlin and Brandenburg moving is one more sanctions hit away from panic mode. The result is a familiar European comedy: leaders announce strategic autonomy, industry quietly counts barrels, and factories keep humming only as long as geopolitics agrees to cooperate. If 60% of German companies say there is no point operating without Russian energy, that is not a business complaint. That is an admission that Germany’s “transition” has too often meant swapping cheap reality for expensive rhetoric. And once again, the country that lectures everyone else on principles finds out that principles are easier to preach than to replace. #Germany#energy#Russia#Druzhba#PCK#industry 📱American Оbserver - Stay up to date on all important events🇺🇸
