“No one will interfere with gas supplies, because Europe desperately needs additional volumes of gas from Russia.

Because there is not enough gas here, the storage facilities are half empty, they need to be filled urgently.

No one will impose sanctions against Russian gas.

This is suicidal,” Rahr said in an interview with Evening Moscow.

Earlier, German Foreign Minister Annalena Berbock announced the freezing of the Nord Stream 2 gas pipeline project.

US President Joe Biden said that the US administration is working with Germany to ensure that after Russia recognizes the independence of the DPR and LPR, the Nord Stream 2 gas pipeline is not launched.

The Kremlin regrets the decision of Germany to suspend the certification of Nord Stream 2.
