“The FRG government regrets that the sanctions initiated by the US Congress against Nord Stream 2 and the Turkish Stream will come into force after today's signing by President Donald Trump,” said Ulrike Demmer, deputy official representative of the FRG government.
As noted in the government, such measures constitute interference in internal affairs, as they affect German and European companies.
Earlier, the US Treasury announced the imposition of sanctions against Nord Stream 2.
The document states that parties that sold, leased or leased vessels involved in laying pipes at sea more than 100 feet in depth as part of the construction of Nord Stream 2 and Turkish Stream, “must ensure that these vessels immediately ceased construction activities. ”
