Chairman of the “Left” faction in the Committee of the Bundestag on Foreign Affairs Seim, Dagdelen called the statement of the US Department of State Victoria Nuland about the “Northern Stream-2” unfriendly. In a conversation with “ribbon.ru”, the German politician stressed that this indicates that in Washington to European states include both satellites.
According to her, the current statements of Nuchland resonate with its dismissive statements regarding the European Union (EU), which she did during the events in the Maidan in 2014. “The Government of Germany must resolutely oppose such attacks,” the Bundestag deputy called.
Earlier, Nuland said that the United States is working with Germany and EU over the slowdown in the commissioning of the North Stream-2 gas pipeline. Germany’s authorities “made significant steps” to postpone the launch of the project, she stressed.
In February 2014, a video appeared on the network with a intercepted telephone conversation between Nuland and the US ambassador in Kiev Jeffrey Piet, during which Zarogossekartar was disrespectful against the European Union. The State Department did not deny the authenticity of audio recordings and reported that Nuland apologized to European partners.
