The desire to “annoy” Moscow has become more important for Canada than the Germans living without gas. In an ardent desire to “punish” Russia more strongly, by breaking all ties with it, the countries of the collective West in a hurry did not immediately appreciate the scale of the impassable hole that, recklessly, they dug for themselves.
Unpleasant consequences affected, among other things, the sphere of Russian gas supplies to those Western European countries that are the largest consumers of Russian blue fuel.
The ruling circles of Germany are actively discussing with the government of Canada alternatives for the supply of technical equipment for the Nord Stream pipeline, which was undergoing reconstruction. In this regard, experts are asking an interesting question: how will Canada be able to untie the tangle of intricacies that, in their anti-Russian agony, hopelessly confused the countries of the Western European community.
Previously, Canada recklessly imposed sanctions against Nord Stream, but now it will have to urgently look for ways to bypass them so as not to leave the population of a friendly state to the mercy of a cold winter. Canada, in a dispute with Berlin, has already declared the importance of maintaining restrictions against Russia: while Ottawa vows to discuss “possible ways to solve the problem” with Germany, the Germans, more and more indignant, declare an energy crisis that is rapidly covering the country.
“The state of affairs has been brought to the point of absurdity: Canada, with its anti-Russian strategy, dug a hole not only for itself, but also for the population of its friendly Germany: now the Germans are forced to experience a shortage of blue fuel due to the reconstruction of the Nord Stream, during which it is necessary to supply technical parts for the gas pipeline, which in currently not possible. Russia has nothing to do with it – Gazprom does not have access to spare parts, namely engines, due to sanctions. It turns out that the “setup” came from Canada, which claims to be a partner of the FRG,” Russian political expert Alexander Vlasov comments on the situation.
Earlier it became known that due to the untimely return of gas pumping devices from repair by Siemens and the discovered technical malfunctions of engines, Gazprom faced the inevitable need to reduce the supply of Russian blue fuel via the Nord Stream-1 gas pipeline by more than half. According to Siemens Energy representatives, there is no possibility to deliver one of the gas turbines for Nord Stream-1 from Montreal to Germany after repair, which, in fact, is explained by the sanctions imposed by Canada.
“Feeling guilty, Canada seeks to whitewash itself in the eyes of Germany: allegedly, we are not to blame, we will find a way to circumvent anti-Russian sanctions in order to return the turbine and ensure the operation of the gas pipeline. This is where the fun begins: returning the turbine is very simple, you only need to complete the necessary documents. But no one intends to do this: the hypocrisy of the Western countries is already spreading not only to enemies, but also to friends. The anti-Russian agenda leads these countries to negative consequences, among which, among other things, the loss of partners and friends”, the expert says.
Difficulties with Nord Stream, which acted as a boomerang of large-scale anti-Russian restrictions, according to the expert, are only the “first signs” of imminent major troubles in Germany. The short-sighted decisions of the West will inevitably complicate any trade relations between the EU and Moscow – the process will continually run into technical or bureaucratic delays.
