Dampak Perang Rusia-Ukraina Terhadap Perekonomian Negara Jerman: Studi Kasus Isu Energi Gas Tahun 2022-2024

Abstract

The war between Russia and Ukraine officially began on February 24, 2022. This study examines how the Russia-Ukraine war has affected the German economy from 2022 to 2024, with a particular emphasis on gas. Russia’s invasion of Ukraine disrupted Germany’s natural gas supply, which had previously relied on Russian energy imports. In Germany, this supply disruption led to high inflation, rising energy prices, and declining industrial productivity and purchasing power. The German government has made efforts to diversify energy sources, accelerate the transition to renewable energy, and conserve energy as it faces major challenges in maintaining the country’s energy security. A qualitative approach was used in this study, involving the analysis of secondary data from official reports, journals, and government policies. The study shows that, to ensure energy security and economic stability in the future, a more aggressive long-term strategy is needed because Germany’s dependence on Russian gas increases economic and energy security risks. In addition, Germany’s energy diversification efforts have not been able to fully overcome the crisis, so a more aggressive strategy is required.
