In turn, she said Germany's government has made it clear that there will be a full initiative for exiting Russian fuels, starting with coal, then oil and gas.

We need a co-ordinated and common plan for an exit phase from fuels so that we can be ready to retire as the European Union”, the German diplomat added.
