U.S. Will Not Sanction Main Nord Stream 2 Pipeline Company

DW: Nord Stream 2: US to waive sanctions against leading company 

The US government has reportedly decided not to sanction the German company behind the gas pipeline. 

Germany's foreign minister called the move a "constructive step." 

United States President Joe Biden will waive sanctions against certain major parties involved in the construction of the Nord Stream 2 gas pipeline from Russia to Germany, US media reported Tuesday. 

The State Department will inform Congress of the entities that deserve sanctions for their involvement, but it will waive sanctions against two key players so as not to compromise US relations with Germany, according to sources cited by news website Axios.
