Sen. Portman slams Biden for waiving Russia pipeline sanctions: 'helps Russia,' hurts US allies
Fox News
Sen. Rob Portman, the co-chair of the Senate Ukraine Caucus, tore into Biden for lifting the sanctions on the Russian firm Nord Stream AG and its Vladimir Putin-linked CEO Matthias Warnig, who are heading up the Baltic pipeline project.
"I am opposed to the Biden administration’s decision to waive the congressionally-mandated sanctions against Nord Stream 2 AG," Portman said in a press release Thursday. "This choice is contrary to our national interests, and at an especially volatile period, helps Russia while hurting Ukraine and our European Union allies." Portman said there is "clear and concerning evidence" that the Russian company and its CEO are "committing sanctionable acts and should be subject to these sanctions" under American law.
