[ロンドン ５日 ロイター] – Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov on Thursday accused the West of causing the worst gas supply crisis in Europe’s history and called for measures to cap the price of Russian oil and petroleum products. He warned that he would retaliate against the G7 countries.
“The gas supply problem was caused by sanctions imposed on our country by Western countries such as Germany and the United Kingdom,” a spokesperson told reporters. “There are constant attempts to shift responsibility and blame onto Russia. We categorically reject this, and the responsibility for the fact that the situation has reached its present state rests with Western countries such as the European Union (EU), Canada and the United Kingdom. claim,” he said.
The Kremlin said the sanctions have prevented Siemens Energy from helping repair engine oil leaks.
“Of course,” he said when asked if he would resume supplying gas to Europe through the main Nord Stream 1 pipeline once sanctions were eased.
