In the office of Chancellor of Germany to reject sanctions.
German Chancellor Angela Merkel joined the criticism of the new US sanctions against Russia made by the Austrian Chancellor and foreign Minister of Germany on the eve.
On the corresponding position Merkel said the representative of the German government Steffen Seibert.
According to him, the German Chancellor has described the US move as “strange,” saying that the European economy should not suffer from sanctions against Russia.
“The decision of the U.S. Senate raises her those same questions to the Chancellor of the Kern and Minister Gabriel. To put it mildly, a strange step, ” said Seibert.
“This should not happen. We reject sanctions with extraterritorial effect, which impact on third countries “, – said the representative of the German government.
Recall, the U.S. Senate almost unanimously approved the new sanctions against Russia in connection with its intervention in the presidential campaign in the United States.
