Experts on South Stream's abolition

Only European powers and their North American ally should be blamed for the abolition of the South Stream gas pipeline project announced recently by Russian President Vladimir Putin, Russian experts believe. 

According to Vladimir Dzhabovm, Fyodor Lukyanov and Sergey Mikheyev, intrigues of the EU and US leadership forced Russia to stop the project. 

Russia was blackmailed by its Western partners and had to drop the project, Senator Vladimir Dzhabarov stressed.
