The discussion about the consequences of the Russian war of aggression in Ukraine and the right reaction to it are topics in the state parliament on Wednesday. The head of government wants to present the current energy supply situation to Parliament.
Schwerin (dpa/mv) – Prime Minister Manuela Schwesig (SPD) is ringing in the session of the state parliament today with a government statement on the energy crisis. Afterwards, the red-red coalition partners in the state parliament want to talk about the concrete implementation and any additions to the federal government’s third relief package.
