The question of the fortieth of the “Northern Flow-2” depends only on the speed of laying pipes, all agreements from the regulators are. This was told by the head of the Ministry of Economy of Germany, Peter Altmeyer, writes TASS.
The question of whether the gas pipeline will be completed, will decide in the next 12 months, he added. Altmayer added that Germany to the final transition to renewable energy vehicles will need more gas than now. The main thing is that all countries must comply with the terms of the project, the head of the Ministry of Economics of the Federal Republic of Germany believes.
“North Stream-2” will be completed, because it is a “purely commercial project.” This was stated by the Deputy Prime Minister of Russia Alexander Novak. He noted that the United States is trying to prevent construction due to “Pure Water Protection”.
Earlier, the German Federal Office for Shipping and Hydrography (BSH) allowed to begin construction of a gas pipeline in German waters. The Consul General of Germany in Yekaterinburg Matias Cruz said that everything remained to complete 80 kilometers of the gas pipeline.
