Vladimir Putin, at a meeting with foreign journalists, offered Germany to buy gas from Russia again, which can be supplied via the surviving string of Nord Stream, Interfax writes.
According to him, Russia is ready for this "even tomorrow", so now the decision is in the hands of German politicians.
Putin named the lifting of relevant US sanctions as a condition for such supplies.
— And if the government of the Federal Republic of Germany agrees with its partners, the sanctions will be lifted, we press the button — and the gas will flow. Even tomorrow. To agree or not to agree — or even without any agreements, simply say: no, we have decided so. Excuse me, he will tell his partners in Washington, but we need this, and without this, it is very difficult for us, — Interfax quotes Putin.
