Heather McPherson MP:
It is abundantly clear that Russia is weaponizing energy.
There is no reason at all to continue undermining Canada’s sanction regime on the faint hope that Russia will deliver energy to Germany. Time to cancel the waiver.
[Dunno who she is -- Canadian MP?]
This woman's tweet is in response to Russia closing down Nord1 for maintenance (so they say). If Russia wishes to retaliate against European trade sanctions by closing the gas pipeline to Germany, why is this "weaponising energy?" Someone please explain.
