Robert Habeck is a German writer and politician who has been co-leader of Alliance '90/The Greens since 2018 alongside Annalena Baerbock.[1] In 2019, he was reported as being a possible chancellor candidate.[2] After the 2021 German parliamentary election, he became Vice Chancellor of Germany, as well as the first Minister for Economic Affairs and Climate Protection.[3]
Less than a year after taking office, he set the Federal Office for the Protection of the Constitution on two ministry officials when he did not like the answers he was getting regarding the German energy supply, accusing them of being Russian moles.[4] It was speculated that this was meant to intimidate; older officials know of no such occurence in the past.[5] He became edgy when he was asked about the matter in 2024.[6]
