i this new her women into this me ah ah, this is d, they'll be news live from burning russia cut gas applies to germany, again, flows through moscow's biggest pipeline, a down to a 5th of normal capacity. germany describes the move as a power play. also on the program, more wild fires burn across europe and it plays crosses the check border to

threaten one of germany's most popular national parks. and we meet a group of refugees in rome, cooking up new life for themselves. i mastering the art of perfect desert. ah, i'm fil gail, welcome to the program, rushes state energy supplier gas problem has cut gas applies to germany through the gnawed stream. one pipeline, germany is network operators as flows have dropped to 20 percent of its full capacity. the cuts mean it will be difficult for the country to fill its reserve tanks before winter and any further reductions could trigger emergency gas rationing. the french government says it could help by supplying 2 percent of its neighbors that needs over winter. tentatively spoke with you energy commissioner cadre simpson, she said that europe should be able to make it through winter,

even without russian gas. we know that the russia is not to lie up with partners. and any moment they can not introduce a fully disruption of gas. despite the fact that right now with a, i did event gas fire 30 pipelines, but we are prepared. and i know that there with the help of reliable gas suppliers we so storage level full enough or do very provide alternative gas supplies or so many things season is it did speak and savings and this fuel switch. so, or those are different aspects that help us through this mentor and, and they will help us through this finter safely without emergency alert. over the address lashelle is an environmental economist from germany, university of bo hm. he gave us his assessment of the money if we just heard from

the energy commissioner, we should stop discussing news. the caution is right, russia is no longer reliable against a lawyer. it actually is intention to create uncertainties to create fear of long european households. so we should focus on our mission. the most important one is we use the guess as far as quickly as possible. and we're using gas dependency. using gas in the household supplies for industry and in electric generation. this is now really important, even with the lower deliveries off gas from russia. we can go through the winter if i guess the mon, you stop century. so it is. so if russian gas flows into germany through north stream on remain there present, reduce levels and you think germany can make it through the other end. here we just

had a new number from the german institute of economic research showing that you are with low off gas to germany, 20 percent as it is right now, there is a relatively high change to go through the winter, but it's clear that you emergency plans and the different legislation, the german government has inactive to reduce, the mob will help us to really go through the winter without for the products. right. and that's a russia has fewer customers for its energy, but prices are going up. so with this is this tactic making the money or losing money? yeah, i think that's a rational strategy. if you're a dominant supplier, of course you're trying, you're trying to cut the supply in order to drive up the prices. but i think the european answer should be that we are asked for for me, or using our market power on the demand side,

a 75 percent. busy off the pipeline market and i think now it is really the time to think about possibilities to step in and trust, dictate prices, and not pay these incredibly high prices that have no attachment to reality. and if russia turns the tops off completely, do you see that as being a likely but this one possibility, that's a possibility. maybe it's just opening up a tab and providing much more guess because the number one priority seems to me to really create these uncertainties in europe. well, we should focus on our strategies. i think here are germany. we are now bringing back our co plans. our call via hope that you will for guess, fire power plants over the winter. i think that is what we should focus on in
