Deutschland: Government declaration BK Scholz
BRUSSELS (AP) — European Union leaders head into a two-day summit with opposing views over if and how the bloc could impose a gas price cap to contain the energy crisis caused by Russia’s invasion of Ukraine and its strategy to choke off gas supplies to the bloc. The need for rock-solid EU unity in confronting Russia will be underscored by Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy. He is set to address the 27 national leaders by video conference from Kyiv asking for continued help to get his nation through the winter. German Chancellor Olaf Scholz said Thursday that Zelenskyy needs not to have such worries.
