OREANDA-NEWS. The Government of Germany continues to have a positive attitude towards the Nord Stream 2 project, expects its completion and will continue to provide political support to the companies participating in it. This is stated in the response of the Cabinet to the request of the faction "Alternative for Germany" in the Bundestag. The document was published on Monday the website of the German Parliament.

“The FRG government still positively evaluates the Nord Stream-2 project,” it emphasizes. From the point of view of the German Cabinet, it is “primarily a commercial project”. “The FRG government is now not aware of how the project will be implemented technically, but it assumes that Nord Stream 2 will be completed. The government will continue to provide political support to the companies participating in the project", the response to the deputy’s request underlines.

Germany’s authorities do not believe that slowing down the construction of the pipeline threatens Germany’s energy security. "Germany’s infrastructure is diversified enough to provide the country with energy during the suspension of construction", the document says.
