Martin Brudermüller is a German businessman, and the Chairman of the Big Chemical corporation BASF since 2018.
He attended the 2023 Bilderberg meeting. These meetings allow for debate within a narrow window of permitted opinion. After the Russian-Ukrainian war started for full in 2022, Brudermüller strongly opposed a proposed EU ban on Russian gas imports. Brudermüller said it would destroy the German economy.[1] His opinion might be seen as being within this window, although decidedly a minority view among the generally hardline participants.
