NATO's provocative actions in the Black Sea, among other things, indicate an attitude against the Russian project of the Nord Stream 2 gas pipeline. This was stated by the official representative of the Russian Foreign Ministry Maria Zakharova, her words are reported by TASS.
The diplomat noted that the provocations indicate the “wild allergy” of the United States and other countries of the North Atlantic Alliance to the pipeline. At the same time, according to her, Nord Stream 2 is a profitable energy project for the entire European region and individual countries.
On December 8, it became known that the Russian Foreign Ministry handed a note of protest to the US Embassy in Moscow, in which it threatened Washington with dangerous consequences if NATO continued to go on provocations near the borders of Russia. Zakharova noted that we are talking, among other things, about the flights of military aircraft and maneuvers of the ships of the Navy in the Black Sea.
