Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has accused Germany of putting its economy before his country''s security in the run-up to the Russian invasion. In an address to Germany''s parliament Thursday, Zelenskyy criticized the German government''s support for the Nord Stream 2 pipeline project meant to bring natural gas from Russia. Ukraine and others had opposed the project, warning that it endangered Ukrainian and European security. Zelenskyy also noted Germany''s hesitancy when it came to imposing some of the toughest sanctions on Russia for fear it could hurt the German economy. The Ukrainian president called on Germany not to let a new wall divide Europe, urging support for his country''s membership of NATO and the European Union.

With the United States and the United Kingdom banning Russian energy exports and the European Union announcing it will reduce Russian gas imports by two-thirds by the end of the year, the West is urgently debating how to replace Russian energy deliveries. The most crucial issue is the Russian gas on which Germany and other parts of Europe depend. From Washington to Berlin, politicians have announced they will be doubling down on wind and solar energy. But while renewable energy production will be part of a long-term solution, the idea that it can replace Russian oil and gas quickly and at scale is disingenuous at best—and disastrous for Western economies and consumers at worst. The reasons should be clear to all but the energy-illiterate: Wind and solar power can replace some of the Russian gas used to generate electricity—but only when the wind blows and the sun shines, requiring substantial backup generation capacity, much of it powered by natural gas. What’s more, electricity is only part of the energy equation: The majority of Russian oil and gas is not used by power plants but to heat homes, run factories, and fuel cars, trucks, planes, and ships—none of which can be easily shifted to other fuels.
