Germany does not consider Nord Stream 2 gas pipeline to be a political project and insists on preserving gas transport from Russia to Europe via Ukraine, German Federal Minister for Foreign Affairs Heiko Maas has said.
“We do not consider [Nord Stream 2], in which a lot of European companies are involved, and not only from Germany, to be a political project,” Maas said at a joint press conference with his Ukrainian counterpart Pavlo Klimkin in Kyiv on Jan. 18.
