Germany announced the suspension of serious procedures for Russia's Nord Stream-2 gas pipeline.
A few days ago, German Economy Minister and Deputy Chancellor Robert Habeck said that Russia's Nord Stream 2 natural gas pipeline project may be completely stopped, which is the German side's response to russia's announcement of recognition of the "Luhansk People's Republic" and "Donetsk People's Republic". On February 22, after Russia recognized the Donetsk and Luhansk People's Republics, the German authorities stopped the certification of the project in Germany.
German Economy Minister and Deputy Chancellor Robert Habeck explained that Germany's decision does not mean that the gas pipeline project will never start. For the Nordsee II project, the approval process is a necessary administrative step, and the lack of relevant German approval means that nord Stream-2 cannot be formally put into operation.
