Ukrainians sue Canada over gas turbine in federal court

| Reading time: 3 minutes

“Even the talk about gas throttling has led to uncertainties”

“If Putin wants to put pressure on the West, he would have to do it before Europe’s storage tanks are full,” says political scientist Gerhard Mangott. With the gas throttling, he aims to reduce support for Ukraine.

The fact that there is a special permit for a Siemens turbine from the sanctions regime against Russia prompts an association of Ukrainians to go to the Federal Court of Justice. More in the live ticker.

Dhe Association for the Rights of Ukrainians Abroad is taking action against the exemption permit for the delivery of the Siemens turbine for the Nord Stream 1 pipeline, serviced in Canada. The World Congress of Ukraine said it had filed an application for judicial review in the Federal Court of Justice, demanding “a finding that the decision to grant Siemens a permit was unreasonable and unjustified, and the annulment of the permit.”

The exception to the sanctions regime against Russia is “completely unacceptable”. There are real alternatives to meet Germany’s gas needs, including buying through the Ukrainian pipeline. Canada’s Defense Ministry did not immediately respond to a Reuters request for comment.

07:21 – The number of dead in Chasiv Yar rises to 45

In the small town of Chasiv Yar in eastern Ukraine, the death toll after a Russian rocket attack on a house has risen to 45. Nine people have been rescued from the rubble since the attack on Saturday, civil defense in the Donetsk region said. Kyiv speaks of a civilian residential building. The Russian army, on the other hand, claims to have attacked a building used for military purposes. The information can hardly be verified independently.

05:20 – Zelenskyy praises western artillery

The Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyj has expressed optimism about the further course of the war against Russia, also because of the Western arms aid for his country. “The occupiers have already learned very well what modern artillery is, and they will no longer have a safe rear anywhere on our soil that they have occupied,” Zelenskyy said yesterday in his daily video address.

04:40 a.m. – Mützenich defends planned delivery of serviced gas turbine

SPD parliamentary group leader Rolf Mützenich has defended the planned delivery of a serviced Russian turbine for the Baltic Sea pipeline Nord Stream 1. “We also believe that the delivery of this turbine is both legally and politically comprehensible,” he told the German Press Agency. “And so we hope that the obvious pretext for a gas throttling will not be maintained by Russia.” It is important to prevent Russia from exploiting this issue for political purposes.
