German Bundestag, Plenarprotokoll 20/45, p.
4672.
Frau President. Ladies and gentlemen. Dear countrymen.
Once again the old parties stand before a shambles which
their energy policy –as foretold by us – has served up. Once again the AfD can
only lay the finger in the wound; since once again the perilous way to ruin
will be pursued at full steam.
Lisa Badum (Greens): Ja, ja!
To the self-made problems of the already immense yet willed
increased expense of energy now comes the Ukraine war as a fire accelerator
which furthermore has unleashed an unspeakable farce of sanctions against our
most important energy suppliers – with catastrophic harm to Germany. Unimpressed
by all the sanctions, step by step Putin now shuts off the gas spigot. Clear
thinking people, who are aware that Germany with its sanctions most harms
ourselves, which has finally, categorically demanded the throttling, have
according to Minister Habeck a pro-fascist position. Yet so to believe that Putin
is permanently threatened by the stop of the natural gas and oil connection,
that he himself does not arrive at the idea to turn the delivery screw, one
must be very dumb or very ideological, which of course comes to the same thing.
Panic now breaks out in this country – fully justified; for
Germany will scarcely endure the coming winter if many miracles do not occur.
Many of the shutdowns blamed on climate change of fully intact and secure power
plants have already ensued. Brown coal mines have been closed and the
production of domestic shale gas has been made impossible. Now you lead the
people to believe that you wanted to actively alter something to avoid the self-generated
shortages. You could do that with a 180 degree change in your entire energy
policy. You nevertheless hang like puppets on the strings of the wind power
lobby and the planners of the Great Reset.
These whisper to you what you here assert; for example, that
ever more bird shredders would have a positive effect on our supply problems.
Completely absurd! They are neither of use to the climate – which all know –
nor with your inconstant electricity do they solve the supply problem. Just the
opposite: You amplify it; since to every wind industry installation belongs a gas
power plant so as to compensate for the rapid wind fluctuations, driven by gas
which we do not have! Not today and not tomorrow. Since the world market does
not wait on Germany as a gas customer. Here also a still deeper bow before the
Qataris or before “Sleepy Joe” is of no use. Where nothing is, nothing can be
delivered.
And then you and others assert that nuclear power plants
could not continue to operate because, for example, the fuel rods are lacking;
for that, it is too late. Yet almost always when Communists open their mouths,
they lie. Since, as the Westinghouse firm told the Handelsblatt, they had already in March informed the Federal
government that delivery can be very well made on time. Yet since then nothing
more has been heard from the Federal government. The time window is now rapidly
closing. An inquiry would need quickly follow.
We thus can here only state: God have mercy on us; since
truly none of our enemies would have been able to think up an energy policy so
destructive against one’s own people. That, only you and your Germany haters
are able to do.
Many thanks.
