Russia announced the stop gas supply through the Nord Stream pipes for 10 days for annual maintenance, causing the governments of European countries to worry.

Nord Stream 1 is currently the largest gas pipeline from Russia to Germany through the Baltic Sea, transporting about 55 billion cubic meters of gas per year.

Russia in June cut up to 40% of the total capacity of the pipeline on the grounds that Canada has not returned the compressed air turbine after being sent to the country by Duc Siemens Energy for maintenance.

The German government welcomes Canada's move.

Europe is concerned that Russia can extend the Nord Stream 1 pipeline maintenance time to further tighten the supply of gas, disturb the storage plan for the winter and push the gas crisis in the escalating area.

German Economic Minister Robert Habeck said Berlin needs to prepare for the Moscow script to stop transferring gas through Nord Stream 1 in addition to the expected maintenance time.

Based on the moves we witnessed recently, it was not too surprising if some small technical issues were discovered and they could say 'We cannot operate the pipes,' Habeck said at one one.

Germany had to move to the second phase of an emergency gas plan of three stages, closer to the allocation of gas -based gas.

Germany also warns the risk of economic downturn if the gas flow from Russia is blocked.

The workforce in Germany will also be significantly affected, about 5.6 million jobs at risk of being affected, Director Bertram Brossardt of VWB said.

In previous years, the Nord Stream 1 annual maintenance process usually lasted 10-12 days and completed on time.

The Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov denied the allegations that Moscow was using oil and gas to increase political pressure on Europe.

In addition to Nord Stream 1, Russia also has other pipes to transport gas to Europe, but the flow is decreasing, especially after Ukraine stops a gas transport system in May, saying that due to the considency.

Russia has completely cut the supply of gas to some European countries that do not fulfill Moscow's requirements for payment in Ruble.

Germany urged Canada to provide turbulence to maintain the Nord Stream 1 gas pipeline, but Kiev criticized Berlin to cede Moscow's extorting behavior.

European countries race to find solutions to ensure the supply of energy, when faced with the risk of lack of gas in the cold winter.
