Because of the incident in the Kerch Strait, the United States urged Europe to be stricter about the use of sanctions against Russia. European countries should do more to support Ukraine, State Department spokesperson Heather Neuert said on Tuesday, November 27. According to her, many countries “imposed sanctions on Russia for its actions in the Crimea, in Ukraine,” but not all of the measures introduced are being implemented. In addition, the representative of the State Department called on Europe to reconsider its position on the Nord Stream 2. The pipeline, the construction of which is carried out by a number of Russian and European companies, should be laid across the Baltic Sea in parallel with the already existing Nord Stream. Works are scheduled to complete in 2019. Source: DW
