Inappropriate spending: Trump chided Germany for "Nord Stream-2"

46
The German authorities "inappropriate" spend taxpayers' money, investing them in the "Nord Stream-2", reports RIA News Statement by US President Donald Trump, made after a meeting with Polish President Andrzej Duda in Washington.



At the same time, according to Trump, the United States is not going to impose sanctions on companies and individuals involved in the construction of the pipeline.

We do not plan to do this, but we think that, unfortunately, German citizens pay billions of dollars a year for fuel from Russia. And I assure you that the German people do not like it,
he told reporters.

Polish President supported Trump and expressed hope that he will be able to stop the construction of the pipeline.

According to him, in this case the decision is in the hands of the American president. “And I hope that he will take this decision,” said Duda.

Earlier, US Secretary of Energy Rick Perry stated that the alleged sanctions against the Nord Stream-2 are primarily related to the transit of Russian gas through the territory of Ukraine. Another reason is the limited number of gas suppliers to Europe.

A number of EU members are sensitive to this issue and want alternatives - whether it is liquefied gas from the United States or the Trans-Adriatic gas pipeline, Perry said, adding that only Germany and, maybe, Austria have a different position on this issue.

Recall, the new gas pipeline project with a capacity of 55 billion cubic meters per year involves the construction of two lines along the bottom of the Baltic Sea from Russia to Germany. The most ardent opponent of the construction of Nord Stream-2 is Ukraine, which is afraid of losing revenues from the transit of Russian gas to European countries.

      And in American terminals, the adoption of LNG is normal ... More expensive, but more democratic.

      Yes, it is already clear to everyone that only money (not even politics) is driving these processes. Some lose money, while others consider the profit ... And those who lose money (or who will definitely not break off, Poland, for example) shout about democracy the loudest!

        Poland is also losing money. The pipeline after Ukraine goes to Germany through Poland. They also receive money for transit now, and after the construction of the SP-2 will cease.

    What was to be expected - Washington bunch in a puddle in response to the construction of SP-2, which is already in full swing. But something else is more interesting - Gazprom and its European partners are starting to discuss SP-3)). It looks like scrap prices will fall sharply from 1.01.2020 due to ukrodumpinglaughing. Although I would suggest that the Maidanut people make the largest Hyperlup in the world from the GTS and choke it to Europe to pick strawberries at the speed of soundsmile.

    US not going to impose sanctions
    It is difficult to say what suddenly influenced the change in the position of Trump, who threatened with sanctions those who are involved in the construction of SP-2. But clearly not the position of Merkel, who finally found the strength to say what the Germans think about this project.

    the poison of the EU members is “sensitive” to this issue and they want alternatives - be it liquefied gas from the USA or the Trans-Adriatic gas pipeline, Perry noted, adding that only Germany has a different position on this issue, and maybe
    Yeah, it’s just so opposed that they can’t eat already. They just wait for the launch, but they don’t burn with the desire to build terminals. As they launch, all opponents will be happy to use gas from both the North and Turkish streams. And the Trans-Adriatic is still just talking, largely because of it the whole Syrian Kildim ..

Not amenable to nor any logic. The President of the United States makes a statement referring to the words of the President of Poland, about Germany’s non-dimensional expenses.

    In my opinion, Kremlin agent Donald Trump is doing everything right so far:
    1. Promotes the fastest creation of a full-blown alliance between Russia and China
    2. Helps Erdogan realize that only Russia is Turkey’s ally
    3. He does everything so that normal Western Europe (and not some kind of oud or mushroom release) feels uncomfortable with such an ally as the USA.
    and all that.
    In general, he reminds me of Zhyrik. The same is inadequate if you have to speak on the box (or on Twitter), and when it comes to real affairs - it votes as it should GDP. wink
