“When Naftogaz says it’s“ discussing something with the United States ”or“ the Nord Stream 2 game isn’t over yet, ”he forgets to mention his true role in such“ games. ” But Mr. Kobolev, apparently, is quite satisfied with the role of the chip on the playing table, which his "American partners" are rearranging from cell to cell, ”the deputy explained.
According to Belik, in a real game in which the US’s goal is to prevent the construction of Nord Stream 2 and increase sales of its shale gas, Ukraine “will never be allowed to be an equal partner.”
“But official Kiev is ready to enjoy the role assigned to it,” the parliamentarian concluded.
Earlier, Kobolev said that Naftogaz was discussing with the United States the possibility of introducing additional measures to hinder the construction of the Nord Stream-2 gas pipeline.
He also noted the effectiveness of the sanctions introduced against SP-2.
