Well, I don't think anyone's suggesting it can be done overnight. So, of course, we will need a stopgap measure (of LNG terminals). For now.

IMHO, what people demand is that Germany should recognize that the current crisis is the fruit of multiple decades of bad energy policy. If we don't, twenty years later, we'll still be saying "Yes, sadly, Germany is still burning gas, but you can't convert it overnight! What do you want?"

France is using the same percentage of gas, why is nobody calling out France for decades of bad energy policy? Even more their nuclear reactors despite massive subsidies are in such a state of disrepair that they had >60% off during the summer, and Germany had to take up the slack.
