Russia’s Nord Stream 2 export gas pipeline is dead with no chance of resurrection, U.S. Deputy Secretary of State Victoria Nuland said at a congressional hearing.
According to her, now the gas pipeline is “a pile of metal at the bottom of the sea.” “I don’t think it will ever be revived,” Nuland added.
Earlier, Deputy Prime Minister of the Russian Federation Alexander Novak said that Russia has the opportunity to ban the pumping of gas through Nord Stream 1 due to the freezing of Nord Stream 2, but so far it has not done so.
Recall, on February 24, Russian President Vladimir Putin made an emergency appeal to the Russians and announced a special military operation in the Donbass. In his speech, he stated that “circumstances require decisive action from Russia” and stressed that “Russia will not allow Ukraine to have nuclear weapons.” In response to Russia’s actions, Western countries (USA, Canada, European Union, Great Britain, Japan) announced new, tougher sanctions against the Russian Federation, including financial and economic ones. Foreign companies began to leave Russia one by one.
