MOSCOW (Reuters) - Russia said on Wednesday the German government was doing everything it could to destroy its energy relations with Moscow, hours after state-controlled Gazprom (MCX:GAZP) halted gas supplies to Europe via the crucial Nord Stream 1 pipeline.

In a briefing in Moscow, Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said it was Germany, not the Kremlin, that was trying to completely rupture energy ties between the two countries.

Gazprom halted gas supplies to Europe via the Nord Stream 1 pipeline for a maintenance outage which Gazprom says will run until 0100 GMT on Sept. 3.

Republicans use Putin like tactics! vote them out! they are toxic to democracy!
putin accuses others falsely of the same action he is doing, projectionism! isn't that what trump does? 2 sleaze ****
Pipeline Gas is transported via pipelines using big "SIEMENS" turbines. Those need servicing just like jet engines on airplanes. Servicing by Siemens in Canada is no longer possible due to SANCTIONS! Germany and the west are destroying themselves as we speak.
So, Moscow cuts gas supplies but Germany is responsible.I love geopolitics! It's complete non sense.
