Priority question for written answer P-002107/2025
to the Commission
Rule 144
Christine Anderson (ESN)
Following the Commission’s announcement (President von der Leyen’s doorstep statement at the European Political Community Summit) of 16 May 2025, another package of sanctions is under preparation, which will include sanctions against Nord Stream 1 and Nord Stream 2. However, no information has been provided on the extent and precise purpose of these sanctions.
Yet, depending on their design, the announced measures may lead to immediate existential consequences for both operators of the Nord Stream gas pipelines (Swiss joint stock companies) and thus potentially irreversible changes in future international cooperation in the field of energy supply. The impact of these potentially serious decisions should be taken into account ahead of implementation.
Is it true that the announced sanctions are currently being prepared and what scope and form will they take?
