Bloomberg, an American news agency, decided to provide clarification material on, what is the Nord Stream-2 gas pipeline and why are its fears of putting it into operation in the West. The authors of the material note, that the United States of America was involved in the process.
At the same time, it is rightly noted, that this situation has developed not only in connection with, that Washington "does not want to see Germany hostage to Russia", but also due to the desire of the United States to sell more gas in European markets. At the same time, the American "blue fuel" in "Bloomberg" was called the "gas of freedom", quoting.
Talks about, that to counter the implementation of the SP-2 project, US senators are proposing new and new sanctions. Recall, that one of the measures under consideration is sanctions against Nord Stream-2 insurers.
The article asks such a question.: "Who else (besides the USA. – ca.. «IN») annoying gas pipeline construction?"The answer from Bloomberg is this: Poland, Slovakia and Ukraine. The authors explain this by, that these countries, when putting SP-2 into operation, risk losing the transit of Russian gas, what will cause them obvious economic damage. Ukraine may suffer the greatest losses in this regard..
The article notes, that the US, in the current situation, in any case will not be able to supply Europe with its gas. Added, that to transport gas from the United States it must be liquefied, resulting in additional costs. Russia traditionally supplies the main volumes of its gas to the European market through gas pipelines, and this for the same Europe is simply cheaper.
