Putin warns Europe that if they want gas, they should Open Nord Stream 2! energy crisis

Putin warns Europe that if they want gas, they should allow Nord Stream 2 to begin operation.


On Friday, Russian President Vladimir Putin denied Russia had anything to do with Europe's energy problem. He said that if the European Union wanted more gas, it could relax sanctions impeding the opening of the Nord Stream 2 project. Putin made these comments during a press conference.

Putin blamed what he called "the green agenda" for the energy problem while speaking to reporters after the Shanghai Cooperation Organization conference in Uzbekistan. He stressed that Russia would fulfill its energy responsibilities while pointing the finger at "the green agenda."


The bottom line is if you have an urge if it's so hard for you, just lift the sanctions on Nord Stream 2, which is 55 billion cubic meters of gas per year, just push the button, and everything will get going, Putin said. "The bottom line is if you have an urge if it's so hard for you, just lift the sanctions on Nord Stream 2," he said.
