And here is the first government dissatisfaction with the sanctions. According to Spiegel, German deputies expressed their indignation of the low temperature in Bundestag. Columnist Tim Neumann reported that at the moment the temperature in the meeting room does not rise above 19 degrees. The main reason is energy saving due to lack of Russian gas.
Politicians are forced to freeze and even warm clothes do not save them from a cold.
“I sat in the office with a down jacket and kept walking back and forth. Nevertheless, after a short time I had a cold nose. <…> This is a farce! Obviously, the administration does not control the situation,” complained the deputy from the Green Party Renate Künast.
The Minister of Finance, Christian Lindner, who at a recent meeting put on a black turtleneck sweater under his jacket, and his cabinet colleague Klara Geywitz, who added a large scarf to her outfit, also froze.
The Bundestag administration is in a hurry to calm down the rebellious politicians. Warmth will soon return to the offices, but it will take some time.
