Germany's Baerbock: We want to diversify energy supplies through cooperation with Qatar
BERLIN, May 17 (Reuters) - Germany wants to secure its energy supplies though cooperating with Qatar, foreign minister Annalena Baerbock said on Wednesday.
"LNG supply from Qatar to Germany today will help us diversify our energy sources in Germany ... We want to stabilize energy supply through the relationship with Qatar," Baerbock said in a joint news conference with her Qatari counterpart in Doha.
It was the first high-level German visit to the Gulf Arab state since tensions over criticism during last year's soccer World Cup. (Reporting by Riham Alkousaa; editing by Bartosz Dabrowski)
