It's very unhelpful that Germany closed its nuclear reactors in favor of coal and Russian gas lmao. Yes the party is using Germany as a boogeyman or whatever but Germany isn't innocent here.

They've been doing that for as long as I can remember. Got nothing to do with coal, Russia or anything else. If something is bad, it's the Germans that did it.

They prepared for some football world cup with images of severed heads of German trainers or players in one of their newspapers. Because... dunno, reasons?

Always the same uniformed comments repeating the same talking points.

Germany is not importing any Ruzzian gas anymore and in Poland, coal actually has the largest share in electricity production by a HUGE margin. The share is about 70% for Poland and 30% for Germany.

Polish conservatives gotta get over their victim complex.

That's not what they even said. Maybe you should get over your superiority complex?

Enlighten us then, tell us what they said/meant and how it relates to the article?

You can also shove your quip about a "superiority complex", I was merely responding to misleading (and that's the generous interpretation) statements about Germany's energy sector which get repeated ad nauseam. Germany has plenty of issues, but I expect people to engage in factual discussion and not just repeat the same old talking points that have little basis in reality.
