The German Ministry of Economy, headed by Robert Habek, is ready to pay 20 million euros for legal advice on issues related to the energy crisis, Bild newspaper reports. According to the newspaper, the ministry posted a vacancy for legal consultants on “issues related to the energy crisis” with a framework contract worth up to 20 million euros. It is noted that the contract will initially be limited until the end of 2024, but can be extended twice for one year, while consulting services must be provided in a short time. This decision, according to the newspaper, is due to the fact that the head of the ministry, Khabek, and his staff cannot cope with the problems associated with the energy crisis, despite the fact that almost 2.4 thousand employees work there, including a large number of lawyers. @banksta
