German Foreign Minister: Europe must learn from Ukraine about energy security

German Foreign Minister Johann Wadephul has said that Europe needs to better protect its energy infrastructure from hybrid and direct attacks and can learn from Ukraine in this regard.

"Critical infrastructure is increasingly a front line of geopolitical confrontation," Wadephul said at an international conference on energy security in Berlin on Tuesday, adding that "neither Germany nor our allies and partners in Europe are immune."

Wadephul highlighted a rise in hybrid attacks on European infrastructure, including cyberattacks, drone strikes and damage to undersea cables, many of which have been attributed to Russia, which has been waging war against Ukraine for more than four years.

"Today is about listening to Ukraine's political and economic decision-makers, communities, civil societies and experts to learn from their experience, their flexibility, perseverance and innovation," said Wadephul in the presence of Ukrainian Energy Minister Denys Shmyhal and representatives of the Group of Seven (G7), the European Union and NATO.

He said Ukraine has amassed the hard-won expertise that the EU urgently needs to strengthen its energy resilience and security, highlighting the speed with which Ukrainian authorities are able to repair damage and restore energy supplies after the Russian attacks. /CNA
