“Zelensky calls Nord Stream 2“ a threat to Europe, ”but does not consider Russian gas flowing through Ukraine to be a threat to Europe. On the contrary, it fights for transit. Nonsense comes out, no logic, ”the senator wrote on his Twitter.

He expressed the opinion that Zelensky is clearly afraid only of loss of income after the cessation of transit of Russian gas.

“I would say bluntly:“ I’m afraid to lose a penny by stopping transit. ” That’s the whole “threat,” said Pushkov.
