Foreign Affairs committee  At no point did I talk about the turbine with him.

Foreign Affairs committee  I think I have to go back to what I said earlier. We saw an energy security issue, as it was addressed by the governments. That made us file for the permit, so that we could export the turbine to the customer. It is difficult for us to say who would be hurt by those sanctions. W

Foreign Affairs committee  Clearly there are impacts on energy security in Europe, as we see right now. I understand this is real, but again, we are a turbine manufacturing and service centre. We overhauled the turbine. We made it ready for shipment. We can't speculate or comment on what impacts or what re

Foreign Affairs committee  If the permit is cancelled, we would not continue any future work.

Foreign Affairs committee  Like I said earlier in my statement, this was only one of many contracts that we perform at this facility, so it's a small portion of the work that we do there.

Foreign Affairs committee  It's always difficult to predict the future, but right now we didn't say that.

Foreign Affairs committee  I, personally, had two meetings. One was in April, which I mentioned earlier. That was the round table that was facilitated by Ambassador Sparwasser, and she invited German and Canadian government officials. We talked about LNG, critical infrastructure, mining and hydrogen. The

Foreign Affairs committee  The turbines are still sitting in Germany, because the customer is refusing to accept them. They're saying that import.... We can't ship them out, because we don't have any import documents from the customer. That's the situation right now.

Foreign Affairs committee  One thing to clarify is that I speak for Siemens Energy Canada, because we are a separate, independent company. Siemens Canada was not involved. We had no inside information here.

Foreign Affairs committee  It was our understanding that the turbine played an integral part in the operation of Gazprom's Nord Stream 1 pipeline.
