Both ministers “agreed that the open questions in the gas sector can also be clarified at the technical level and that there is therefore no need for a bilateral solidarity agreement between Germany and Switzerland,” the Swiss government said. The work between the German Federal Network Agency and the Swiss crisis organization should be continued. “With this pragmatic path, the same goal can be achieved,” the statement said.
The effects of the Russian war of aggression in Ukraine have led, among other things, to a global energy crisis. Switzerland has few gas storage facilities and is very dependent on neighboring countries.
