/ world today news/ “The United States is doing everything to fail the implementation of the South Stream project – this is a simple competitive struggle,” Russian President Vladimir Putin said today.
“The US is our competitor. This is a normal situation and they are doing everything to fail the South Stream agreement. Just like many decades ago. There is nothing unusual about this – it is an ordinary competition. In the course of this competitive struggle, they also use political means,” Putin also said during the press conference after the negotiations with the President of Austria Heinz Fischer, reports RIA Novosti.
Currently, the US intends to enter the European energy market through the sale of shale gas. In this regard, Putin stated that the Russian gas pipeline will in any case be cheaper than the supplies of shale gas that can be delivered to Europe.
