it is wrong to discuss sanctions against the Nord Stream 2 gas pipeline against the backdrop of attempts to establish a dialogue between Moscow and Washington. This was stated by the press secretary of the President of RUSSIA Dmitry Peskov, Interfax reports.

The Ambassador called new US sanctions due to Nord Stream 2 unacceptable Politics

Earlier on November 23, US Secretary of State Anthony Blinken announced the imposition of sanctions against Transadria Ltd and two other vessels that are related to the construction of the gas pipeline. US authorities call Transadria a shell Russian company registered in Cyprus, BLOOMBERG reported.

Blinken explained that the State Department submitted a report to Congress based on the Protecting European Energy Security Act (PEESA) of 2019. Transadria will face sanctions based on this law, and its vessel Marlin will be recognized as "confiscated property." The second vessel, which will be subject to restrictions, has not been named by the State Department.
