US Ambassador to Germany Richard Grenell is warning German companies that they risk sanctions from Washington if they support construction of the Nord Stream 2 gas pipeline. Germany’s Bild newspaper printed a text of a letter sent to Germany companies where the Ambassador warns “if European gas supplies through Ukraine become redundant due to the launch of Nord Stream 2 and the Turkish stream, Kyiv will lose its importance in the field of security policy, which will increase the risk of intervention by Russia.” Nord Stream 2 A.G. says one third of the 1,200 km pipeline has been laid.
