The German government has confirmed that the launch of Nord Stream 2 is not under consideration The Federal Government of Germany has stated that the order for the Russian gas pipeline Nord Stream 2 ("North Stream-2") is not currently considered, and its certification process remains suspended. This is reported by Ukrainform in reference to the federal government's response to the request of the parliament by the deputies of the extreme right party "Alternative to Germany". "For the federal government, the issue of operating Nord Stream 2 is out of the question. In addition, the certification procedure for Nord Stream 2 remains suspended," the document states. The response mentions that after the start of Russia's full invasion of Ukraine, during the year 2022, Moscow gradually reduced the pipeline gas supply to Germany for political reasons, and even before the sabotage of the gas pipelines in September of that year, it stopped it completely. "Russia has proven that it is not a reliable partner in energy cooperation," the document reads.
