Merz erklærer brændstofforsyningen sikker under energikrisen

Forbundskansler Friedrich Merz erklærede ved åbningen af Hannover Messe, at forsyningen af diesel, benzin og petroleum er sikret på trods af den energikrise, som Iran-krigen har udløst. Han annoncerede et kommende møde i det nationale sikkerhedsråd. Økonomiminister Katherina Reiche inviterer repræsentanter for industrien til drøftelser.

Ved åbningen af Hannover Messe lørdag beskrev forbundskansler Friedrich Merz (CDU) Tysklands brændstofforsyning som stabil. "I øjeblikket er markedssituationen anspændt, men forsyningen i Tyskland er sikret," sagde Merz. Han annoncerede, at "et møde i det nationale sikkerhedsråd meget snart vil blive indkaldt i Berlin", hvis situationen forværres.

Økonomiminister Katherina Reiche (CDU) har inviteret repræsentanter fra leverandører, lufthavne, flyselskaber og brancheorganisationer til samtaler på mandag om forsyningen af flybrændstof. Lederen af IEA, Fatih Birol, advarede for nylig om mangel på flybrændstof i Europa fra maj, og finansminister Lars Klingbeil (SPD) tog disse advarsler alvorligt.

Merz mødtes med Brasiliens præsident Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva før åbningen, hvor Brasilien er messegæsteland. Begge understregede behovet for tættere økonomiske bånd og EU-Mercosur-aftalen, som træder foreløbigt i kraft den 1. maj. Lula fremhævede biobrændstoffer, som gør Brasilien mindre påvirket af Iran-krigen.

Merz argumenterede for Tysklands tiltrækningskraft som investeringssted på trods af høje energipriser, skatter og bureaukrati. Midt i svage ordretal og pres fra Kina fokuserer industrien på AI og robotteknologi, som messedirektør Jochen Köckler bemærkede. Over 3000 udstillere forventer mere end 100.000 besøgende.
