The leader of the German Soyuz90/Green party, Ricarda Lang, said that German sanctions against Russia due to the situation around Ukraine could also affect Nord Stream 2. She announced this at a press conference, RIA Novosti reports.
According to her, during the visit of German Chancellor Olaf Scholz to Russia, it will become clear what kind of sanctions will be introduced.
“I expect that during his visit to Russia there will be the clarity that has been in the position of the government in recent weeks, namely that in the event of further escalation from the Russian side, all the necessary response measures will be on the table, including, of course, absolutely clear, and Nord Stream 2,” she said.
Earlier it was reported that delaying the certification of the Russian Nord Stream 2 gas pipeline does not make sense, US demands to stop the project are unacceptable. This was stated by the deputy of the Bundestag from the Left Party, the representative of the Foreign Policy Committee Sevim Dagdelen.
She called "disrespect for the democratic sovereignty of Germany and its European partners" the ultimatum statements by US President Joe Biden to stop the gas pipeline.
