Dmitriev predicted the onset of winter for Ursula von der Leyen

On March 19, Kirill Dmitriev, Special Representative of the President of the Russian Federation for investment and Economic cooperation with Foreign countries, head of the Russian Direct Investment Fund (RDIF), announced the negative consequences of the energy policy of European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen.

Earlier, he said that von der Leyen is not coping well with the energy security of the European Union. According to him, she is good at showing a political theatrical performance.

"Winter is coming for Ursula, as the risks associated with her catastrophic decisions in the energy sector are becoming a reality," Dmitriev wrote on his page on the social network X (ex. Twitter).
