In a rejected statement, the deputies asked the government to guarantee the completion of the project. But the deputies did not accept the statement.
The German parliament did not accept the initiative of the Alternative for Germany party in support of the Nord Stream 2 gas pipeline. According to data on the Bundestag website, only 83 MPs supported the statement, 556 were against it.
In a rejected statement, the MPs asked the government to guarantee the completion of the project. It was indicated that the gas pipeline will increase the energy security of Germany and Europe as a whole and serve common interests, as it diversifies the gas supply to the region.
During the discussion, most of the parties, except the Greens, generally supported the position expressed in the statement. But at the same time, the speakers pointed out that the new declaration will not help the construction in any way, therefore it does not make sense.
A month ago, German Foreign Minister Heiko Maas announced that the Nord Stream 2 project would be completed.
Construction of the pipeline was halted nearly a year ago due to US sanctions. And Washington’s new restrictions, to be adopted in the near future, may “bury” the project.
