Russia has vowed to retaliate against the U.S. sanctions against a new Russia-Germany pipeline, the work on which was suspended on Saturday.
U.S. President Donald Trump signed legislation last week that provides for sanctions against individuals and companies involved with the vessels laying the Nord Stream 2 pipeline under the Baltic Sea from Russia to Germany.
The move prompted a Swiss company that operates ships laying sections of the pipeline to suspend the work.
The Kremlin spokesman said Monday that Moscow will take measures of “reciprocity" over the sanctions Russia considers unacceptable.
