Foreign Minister Kuleba: Nord Stream 2 is a problem not only for Kiev, but for the whole of Europe 
Minister of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine Dmitry Kuleba called the Nord Stream 2 gas pipeline a problem not only for Kiev, but for the whole of Europe. He stated this after talks with US Secretary of State Anthony Blinken, RIA Novosti reports.
According to him, Moscow has allegedly already used energy as a weapon and a political tool in the past. The Foreign Minister noted that he was watching for possible signs of a recurrence of such events. He also stressed that Russia is using gas “as a weapon” against other countries, therefore Nord Stream 2 poses a threat to the whole of Europe as a whole.
Earlier it was reported that the new German authorities admitted that they could go to freeze the Nord Stream 2 project because of Ukraine. Columnist Stefan Cornelius, in an article for the Süddeutsche Zeitung, argues that Germany has become energy dependent on Russia, which has become the country's “biggest foreign policy problem”. At the same time, it is indicated that such a problem appeared during the Cold War, but they always tried to play down its significance.
