“That’s why they blew up Nord Stream. Then they will blow up something. They don’t care at all, it’s their style. They will blow up something, blame us for hitting our gas transmission system. Because in that case, they’ll say, we just reacted. After that, he will tell Europe: “look, there is no way out, you need to urgently launch Nord Stream 2, which you do not launch… Europe will be left without gas due to Ukraine”. This will be a step,” Zelenskyy said.
Details
According to the President of Ukraine, Russia may take such a step within the next two months.
“We need a clear position now, if Russia continues to undermine the energy system of Europe – on the territory of Russia, Ukraine – we will not launch Nord Stream 2. We will not lift sanctions,” the Head of State stressed.
Recall
Last month, leaks were discovered in the Nord Stream 1 and Nord Stream 2 pipelines, which stretch across the Baltic Sea to Germany from Russia – two in Sweden and two more in Denmark – which led to an investigation and enhanced the security of the region’s key energy infrastructure.
The investigation in Sweden called “detonations” the cause of leaks from the Nord Stream.
the Kremlin denies its involvement in the Northern Stream bombings.
