It is reported by Bloomberg with reference to Canadian Minister of Natural Resources Jonathan Wilkinson.

“We are negotiating with Germany, trying to find a way in which we can actually secure gas supplies.

There are different options that we can consider,” Wilkinson said.

He clarified that Canada is trying to find the best option in order to comply with the sanctions established by the country and at the same time not harm Germany.

On June 9, Russian gas supplies via Nord Stream were reduced due to planned technical work.

According to Gazprom, the supply volumes were limited due to the untimely return of equipment from repair by Siemens.

After that, Gazprom announced that it was stopping the operation of another gas turbine engine of the German concern Siemens at the Portovaya CS.

On June 17, Natural Resources Canada spokesman Anthony Ertle said that the Canadian authorities were actively negotiating with the German government about Nord Stream equipment being repaired in Canada.
