Former German Chancellor Gerhard Schroeder lashed out at the US for its position on Nord Stream 2 gas pipeline.
Former Chancellor of Germany Gerhard Schroeder said Saturday that the US has its own energy interests in Europe, which explains the pressure Washington exerts on the Nord Stream 2 gas pipeline project.
