German Foreign Ministry: sanctions against Nord Stream-2 by the US encroach on EU energy security

Germany believes that the new sanctions against the Nord Stream-2 pipeline, which were invented in the US, infringe on European energy security.

This was stated by German Foreign Ministry.

“New sanctions will mean a serious infringement on European energy security and EU sovereignty”, –  said in a statement of the Foreign Ministry.

The agency representative notes that the German government does not recognize the sanctions with extraterritorial impact.
