The new decree
At a press conference in Berlin with his French counterpart, German Economy Minister Robert Habeck said he had not yet seen the new decree signed by Russian President Vladimir Putin imposing gas payments in rubles, adding that Germany is ready for all scenarios, including cutting off Russian gas flows to Europe.
Reject
French Minister Bruno Lemaire said France and Germany reject Russia's demand.
Russia's attempt to divide Western allies by demanding gas payments in rubles has failed, Habeck said, adding that Western allies are determined not to be "blackmailed" by Russia.
