Der Spiegel writes about it.

According to Khabek, the reduction in gas supplies via the Nord Stream gas pipeline announced by Gazprom was a “political decision”, the procedure is “technically not justified”.

According to TASS, the German Cabinet of Ministers noted that German Chancellor Olaf Scholz agrees with the head of the Ministry of Economy: the reasons for the reduction in supplies may be political.

On June 14, the press service of Gazprom informed that the volume of gas supplies via Nord Stream was limited due to the untimely return of equipment from repair by Siemens.
