Nord Stream 2 is threat to European energy security – US, Ukraine
The United States and Ukraine stated that the Nord Stream 2 gas pipeline project is a “threat to European energy security” which both countries continue to oppose. The remarks were made during Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky’s (pictured) visit to Washington.
“The United States intends to continue using measures envisaged in legislation and energy diplomacy, including through the recent appointment of a senior advisor for energy security, to maintain Ukraine’s transit role and security of supply during this period of energy transition and to prevent the Kremlin’s use of energy as a geopolitical weapon. The US and Ukrainian governments support efforts to increase capacity for gas supplies to Ukraine from diversified sources,” the two governments said in a joint statement.
