Pompeo: US to continue to push back against Nord Stream 2

During congressional testimony on Wednesday, US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo touched upon the Nord Stream 2 pipeline project, saying that the United States should continue to push for an end to it.

"We should continue to push the Nord Stream 2 to be ended," Pompeo said during testimony before the US House Foreign Affairs Committee, Sputnik reported.

Pompeo stressed that it may be difficult for European countries to push back against Moscow because of their reliance on the Russian energy supplies.
