Germany issues a strong warning to Russia about the Ukraine crisis. Germany said on Thursday that if Russia attacked Ukraine, it would apply "massive sanctions." As a result, the Nord Stream 2 pipeline, which was built to deliver natural gas to Europe, may be delayed.

Russia issues a warning to Russia about an assault in Ukraine


German Foreign Minister Analina Bayerbach told AFP that talks with Western allies were underway to put heavy penalties on Russia. The Nord Stream 2 project is one of these limits.

Russia exports natural gas to Germany. The Nord Stream 2 pipeline has been set up to double the gas exports to the region. Germany is taking gas from Russia to get out of coal and nuclear power.


This was followed by a dispute with the United States like Germany. Many of Germany's allies, including the United States, fear that Russia's dependence on Russian energy could increase if gas supplies to the Nord Stream 2 line begin. Although this crisis has since ended.

German Finance Minister Robert Hebeck, on the other hand, had a different opinion. He claimed the penalties might affect Germany's economy on Wednesday.


The US supports the imposition of sanctions on the Nord Stream 2 gas pipeline. The pipeline would not be reopened if Russia attacked Ukraine, according to Ned Price, a spokesperson for the country's foreign ministry.
