Washington’s sanctions threat against European companies building Nord Stream 2 is hitting the Achilles heel of the Russia-Germany gas line

Washington’s sanctions threat against European companies building Nord Stream 2 is hitting the Achilles heel of the Russia-Germany gas line, according to two Ukrainian energy experts interviewed by UNIAN. “If the US imposes sanctions, then the probability of Allseas abandoning the project is 99.5%,” Oleksandr Kharchenko, director of Kyiv’s Energy Industry Research Center, says of the Swiss-based offshore pipeline and platform company. Referring to the 3,000-employee multinational, he said: “If Allseas falls into the sanction list, then for the organization it is a disaster, since most of the world’s oil industry workers will not work with it.”
