Nord Stream 2 is at an impasse: conflicting news about the Russian gas project

7

Contradictory come from world media news about Nord Stream-2, a Russian gas project that involves laying two pipelines along the bottom of the Baltic Sea to Germany. Some experts believe that there is vivid evidence of the impasse of the project and the inability of those responsible to lead the matter to a logical conclusion.

Information on the possible hopelessness of SP-2 is suggested by information about the departure of the gas pipeline’s general director Hennig Kote - the company noted that Kote decided to leave his post for personal reasons. Marco Casirati will take his place in Nord Stream 2 AG. According to the assurances of the Russian authorities, there is little time left before the completion of the pipeline construction - it would be illogical to leave the "bread" position and a successful project. Quite possibly, Kote knows what is so far hidden from the world community.



Complicating matters is the fact that the German parliament directly raised the question of the country's participation in Nord Stream-2. The deputy head of the Free Democratic Party faction, Alexander Labmsdorf, called on Merkel to abandon the pipeline because of the murder in Berlin last August of a 40-year-old Georgian resident - the Russians were charged with the crime. The pressure in the Bundestag becomes an open riot.

At the same time, the United States does not stop threatening sanctions to anyone who is at least somehow involved in the construction of the pipeline. In particular, Denmark found itself in a difficult situation, near the shores of which the Russian pipe layer “Akademik Chersky” should conduct work - the United States promises personal sanctions to government officials of this country.

Washington’s countermeasures can affect many EU financial and governmental organizations. According to Bloomberg, the German authorities will respond with mirror sanctions to the Americans if they slow down the construction of Nord Stream-2. Thus, the project was at an impasse, a way out of which can be very difficult.

    And what is the dead end?
    1. Change of CEO? I hear his name for the first time. In my opinion, the role of the personality of Hennig Kote in the project is exaggerated.
    2. The rebellion of the liberals? Already a whole deputy head of the Free Democratic Party faction called. belay This is approximately how Yavlinsky would have expressed his categorical phraseological unit.
    3. Can Washington's countermeasures affect many EU financial and government institutions? What's the news? They have been touching for a long time, but no, they shamelessly touch everyone and everything without any decency. What's new in this? Gazprom will change its mind about completing the gas pipeline because the "exceptional" will swear at the EU? Miller does not have such a delicate mental organization.
    So what's the dead end?
    Another "dummy", probably reprinted from some Polish or American newspaper.

      Maybe this Kote was thrown out because he inserted sticks into the wheels? This, of course, will not be said, but this option also does not need to be discounted.

        Maybe so, but most likely, he has already saved up "for old age", now he thinks, no matter how they take it away. winked

      And if the Americans are Germans sitting in the liver? Dieselgate - a fine of 4 billion. Deutsche Bank - a fine of 4 billion. Yesterday Bayer - to pay the United States 10 billion. Which could go to German pensioners ... crying
