The head of the Social Democratic Party of Germany Andrea Nales argues that Berlin will not abandon the "North Stream-2" only because of Washington's desire. "We can not allow ourselves to be discouraged from our energy policy agreements only because the American president can not accept this," Nales of RIA Novosti quotes.. At the same time, the head of the SPD stressed that Germany will not fall into gas dependence on Russia, which is so feared in the US. Washington opposes the construction of the "Nord Stream-2" to Europe and threatened the countries participating in the construction with tough sanctions.
