Ukrainian President asked "friends in the US Senate" to support sanctions against the Nord Stream 2 gas pipeline

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy has grown fond of reaching out to American lawmakers through social media. By this, he kind of demonstrates to them his modernity and loyalty.

On January 8, the young “father of the Ukrainian nation” once again burst into a post on his Twitter account in two languages ​​(English and Ukrainian). He thanked two US senators, Republican Ted Cruz and Democrat Chuck Schumer, for their agreement to put the Nord Stream 2 sanctions on the Senate (upper house of Congress) vote.



In addition, on behalf of Ukraine, he asked all Kiev's friends in the US Senate to support the mentioned initiative, namely the bill S.3436 to protect the energy security of Europe. Such actions of Zelensky can already be called a tradition.

Ukrainian President asked "friends in the US Senate" to support sanctions against the Nord Stream 2 gas pipeline


It should be noted that before this Zelensky addressed with a similar appeal to US parliamentarians in November 2021. Then he called on the Americans to end forever the "gas blackmail" of Europe by Russia, directing Washington's restrictions against the specified gas pipeline.

Recently, the American media informed the public that a meeting on this matter should take place in the Senate before January 14. Approval of the initiative will occur if 60 senators vote for it.

The whole catch is that the draft law deals with restrictions related to the construction of the pipeline. However, the construction of Nord Stream 2 has long been completed. Moreover, the pipeline is already Р · Р ° РїРѕР »РЅРµРЅ technical gas.

    What are they rushing about with this stream? This is yesterday.
    The fuel and energy complex in Ukraine is developing at an unprecedented pace.

    He's crazy about fat. Ukraine is already chic. They also want to steal gas. They ask amers to help. Only the Germans need to remember: the tap is on our side.

      The Germans are under their green shiza.
      Of course for them it will be disastrous, but under certain options they can cut off the gas themselves, most likely only partially.

      WE is, in principle, quite productive in appealing to the states. If the Germans are already nauseated by 404. The situation in the USA is different. Biden's 404, together with WE, most likely causes despondency and fatigue, but one has to work out about the "help from the West" to Ukraine suffering from "aggression" from Russia, etc.

      But the American Congress, with its clearly expressed position on the containment of "hostile" Russia, welcomes such statements. The sanctions lobbyists will declare that poor Ukraine, represented by the president, is screaming for help and that Russia needs to be punished.

    So many sanctions were imposed on this stream that the question involuntarily arises, what else can be thought of. Most likely, Russia will end up imposing a big and thick stream on this stream. And without it we eat well. All the more, it seems that the rumor went that the construction was repulsed. fellow

    It is high time for Russia to deploy all the sanctions that are being imposed against it because of Ukraine in the direction of Ukraine. Let the West take this suitcase without a handle for its full allowance. This is the only way to stop this whole stream of sanctions ...
