According to the American leader, the United States has not yet decided on sanctions on the Nord Stream 2 gas pipeline.

“We have not decided on this yet. I consider this (gas pipeline. - RT ) a problem, but it is a problem that Germany itself must deal with, ”he said.

Along with this, Trump added that he will discuss the situation around Nord Stream 2 with German Chancellor Angela Merkel.

Earlier in the US, it was noted that Congress could include sanctions against Nord Stream 2 in the defense budget for 2020.

The deputy director general of the National Energy Institute, Alexander Frolov, in an interview with the NSN, appreciated the statement by US Senator Ted Cruise on the possible imposition of sanctions on companies participating in the construction of the Nord Stream-2 gas pipeline.
