The Belarusian authorities should not use geopolitical gas gas. The representative of the press service of the European Commission (EC) was called Massoli, the RIA Novosti quotes it.
So, she commented on the statement of the Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko that the Republic could overlap the Yamal – Europe pipeline and stop the gas transit to the European Union (EU).
“Gas is an important resource and should not be used in geopolitical disputes. People should not be used in geopolitical disputes,” said Massoli.
November 11, Lukashenka complained that Poland thinks completely overlapping the border with the republic and stop the trade with it against the background of the migration crisis. The head of Belarus promised a tough response to possible sanctions and threatened to leave Europe without gas, breaking the gas pipeline “Yamal – Europe”. “We are heating Europe, they still threaten us that they will close the border. And if we break the natural gas there?” – spoke by the Belarusian leader.
