Umm, wasn't there news about Germany and Qatar signing a new gas deal?

This is a private welfare organization not "Germany", our government does things, but the 85m Germans have have differing opinions. Especially since we have a multi-party system reliant on compromise.

If you need natural gas, there aren't too many options around.
US and Canada have fairly expensive natural gas. Russia is off-limits. Norway can't supply the entire EU on their own.
At least Qatar won't invade their neighbours any time soon.
The trade deal explicitly mentions that Germany will reduce the imports during the (IIRC 15 year) contractual period to meet ecological goals, so it's already just a temporary supplier.
