Unlike some Western European countries, our country will be able to provide both the population and industry with an adequate amount of gas - this is what Zoltán Kiszelly, director of the Political Analysis Center of the Századvég Foundation, spoke about on M1's Ma regleg program. He added that, as a result of the thoughtless sanctions, Europe now has to purchase energy carriers more expensively, and a part of Western Europe has to think about whether to provide gas for the population or industry.

Europe has reached the brink of an unprecedented energy crisis, said Zoltán Kiszelly, director of the Political Analysis Center of the Századvég Foundation, in the M1 program Ma regleg.

He reminded that as a result of the sanctions policy of the European Union, by restricting the delivery of Russian coal and oil to Europe, prices rose and inflation was created. He added that, unlike some Western European countries, our country will be able to provide the population and industry with an adequate amount of gas. The director of the Analysis Center also spoke about how

Germany, on the other hand, is in serious trouble: they have to decide whether they will provide gas to the population during the winter period at the expense of industry, or whether they will provide enough gas for production, which would result in the population "freezing".

The director of the Center for Political Analysis of the Századvég Foundation stated that some Western European countries see that their gas supply is based on Russian supply, and changing this would entail huge costs. Despite this, they buy liquefied gas at a "golden price", - mainly from the United States - which they also "buy" from developing countries, just as they did with vaccines during the epidemic.

Kiszelly also talked about the fact that it is no coincidence that German municipalities create "warming areas" so that neither the population freezes in winter nor the German industry collapses due to the lack of gas. He noted that this is one reason for the trend of restarting coal-fired power plants in Western Europe.
