According to Heiko Maas, a new attempt by the United States to prevent the completion of the construction of Nord Stream 2 violates European sovereignty.
“American sanctions against the Russian-German Nord Stream-2 gas pipeline project are illegal and violate the sovereignty of the European Union”, – Maas said.
Recall that US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo previously announced Washington’s readiness to introduce new sanctions against Nord Stream-2 and parts of the Turkish Stream, as well as companies involved in the implementation of these projects.
