US exterritorial sanctions against companies involved in Nord Stream 2 pipeline project, expected to carry Russian gas to Europe, are "inappropriate," German Chancellor Angela Merkel said Thursday.
The Department of Treasury on Tuesday imposed sanctions on the Russian pipe-laying vessel Fortuna and its owner KVT-Rus for building the Nord Stream 2 gas-exporting route.
"Exterritorial sanctions are, in any case, a measure that I consider inappropriate," Merkel told a press conference.
