Q-and-A: 28 Apr 2022

 1.  Whats with all the hype against former Chancellor Schroeder?

Once he was defeated out of office....he immediately took a job with Russia's GAZPROM, and made a fair amount of income.  A lot of current SPD members are embarrassed by his situation, and his pro-Putin attitude.  The current chatter....they want him to resign from the SPD Party, and to terminate the services provided to former Chancellors.  He seems to enjoy the attention and I doubt that he does anything.

2.  Poland and Bulgaria about to go without Russian natural gas?

Yes.  And the reason is no one wants to pay in Rubles.  Contract says payment in dollars or Euro.
