Russian gas will close the project "Ukraine"

2
President of Ukraine Petro Poroshenko called the Nord Stream 2 project an example of Russian expansion. Speaking at the 54th Munich Security Conference, the Ukrainian president said that Russia was playing a dishonest game, for which Russian athletes who were not allowed to attend the Olympics in South Korea paid.



According to Poroshenko, dishonest game is also manifested in the fact that Russia is developing the Nord Stream 2 project not so much as economichow much how political, allowing you to put pressure on objectionable countries.

It is clear that Ukraine is very concerned about the Nord Stream. After all, the gas pipeline that goes to Western Europe through the Baltic Sea will deprive Kiev of the opportunity to make money on gas transit. Therefore, the Ukrainian president spoke about the Russian "unfair game", which allegedly took place.

In fact, there is nothing dishonest in the construction of the Nord Stream-2 gas pipeline, and not only Russia, but also Western European countries that want stable gas supplies, and not constant risks associated with the peculiarities of the political situation in Ukraine, are interested in it. Even the head of Germany, Angela Merkel, quite openly supported the new gas string, which caused extreme discontent both in Ukraine itself and in neighboring Poland.

If Poroshenko does not change his rhetoric, he risks losing the support of his main European friend - Germany. Indeed, relations with Poland, Hungary and Russia are nowhere worse. Could this be the beginning of the end of the Ukraine project?

    It will be the end, of course it will! And the Kiev junta walked towards this closure of the Ukraine project consciously. Deliberately or by the stupidity of the establishment, blackmailing both Russia and the West with a pipe. And rightly so!
