As Slutsky noted, the German Chancellor had previously stated that he considers Russia an unreliable gas supplier.

The parliamentarian noted that the EU countries illegally impose sanctions, allow the expropriation of financial assets and "a disgusting cancellation culture."

“The words of the German chancellor are another attempt to shift the blame for the crisis in Europe to Moscow,” Slutsky said.

Earlier, Scholz called "unconvincing" the arguments of the Russian side about reducing gas supplies via Nord Stream for technical reasons.

On July 20, Russian President Vladimir Putin announced that Gazprom intends to fulfill its obligations to supply gas to European countries.
