Natural gas. Germany has stockpiled 90% of what they believe they will need in natural gas supply for the nation for the winter.
Right. Say Putin fails and is removed, the rest of the world isn’t remotely out of the woods yet. Putin probably isn’t the most hardline member of his party, and he could be replaced with someone more extreme albeit with less of a capable military. Plus the West’s and China’s hands are going to be vying to influence whatever administration comes in after. It could get really sloppy.
where does it say that? english or german sources are fine.
edit:
this says 90% of storage capacity NOT projected usage
Gasspeicher in Deutschland: So hoch ist der Füllstand
I think we are saying the same thing and that article you linked isn’t saying different.
What I linked, the German economic minister says they won’t have enough after this winter, and they are hoping this amount they attain will last them if it’s an average winter and there people conserve.

You are arguing over semantics And I’m not sure why since we are saying the same thing.yes it is. the article says the reserve tanks are 90% full. that is not the same thing as saying we have 90% of what we need.
it means that the physical tanks are at 90% of what they can hold.
ignoring as i am focusing about numbers.
"If everything goes well, savings in Germany are high and if we have a bit of luck with the weather, we will have a chance at getting through the winter comfortably," Economy Minister Robert Habeck said on Monday.
"That means, however, that the storage facilities will be empty again at the end of the winter — in this case really empty, because we are going to use the gas," he added.
