German politician from the SPD, which won the elections: It is necessary to put into operation "Nord Stream - 2"

29

Co-chairman of the Social Democratic Party of Germany (SPD) Norbert Walter-Borjans regrets that business partners are not chosen based on their political views. Therefore, he stands for economic partnership between Germany and the Russian Federation, because it brings benefits to both countries.

The German politician mentioned this in an interview for the Augsburger Allgemeine newspaper.



Walter-Boryans is sure that it is necessary to put Nord Stream 2 into operation, because it meets the economic interests of Germany. He believes that cooperation with Russia does not mean that Berlin becomes dependent on Moscow. On the contrary, it makes the FRG a more independent state.

In my opinion, independence is ensured not by breaking ties with others, but rather by having as many ties as possible with as many partner countries as possible.

- said the party leader.

At the moment, the process of forming a ruling coalition is underway in Germany, which should include the SPD, the Greens and the Free Democrats. At the same time, the Green Party has consistently opposed the launch of Nord Stream 2. They see the pipeline as a tool with which the Kremlin is allegedly blackmailing Europe.

Let us remind you that the SPD, following the results of the recent voting in Germany, became the winner. It is believed that the new chancellor, who should replace Angela Merkel, will represent the SPD.

Germany's neighbor Poland actively opposes the introduction of the SP-2 system.

    German politician from the SPD, which won the elections: It is necessary to put into operation "Nord Stream - 2"

    Somewhere in Kiev, one funny clown began to cry.

    . The President of Ukraine has made a "lucrative" offer to the Russian "Gazprom". In fact, Vladimir Zelensky himself stated about this:
    We have made an advantageous offer to the Russian Federation on the issue of gas transit.

    According to the President of Ukraine, while ensuring gas transit through the Ukrainian territory, Russia "can get a huge discount."

    A discount on his own gas? From Ukraine? Only he can joke so sparklingly.

    They will now procrastinate on this topic all the way. Until the SP-2 is launched, the topic is relevant and you can earn political points on it. When they start - that's all, the topic will go away ...

        Why don't freezing Europeans ask the "trendy" greens when it will be warm in apartments and electricity at work?

          There are no freezing Europeans. Heat and electricity are available there. The problem is in 2 aspects:
          1. Growth of payments for heat and energy
          2. Decline in the competitiveness of some industries.
          How to deal with this? From item 1 - it's hard. With item 2 - through targeted support of such industries. Long and cheap loans, deferred tax payments, direct assistance in the form of grants. There are other tools as well. The Europeans have all this, and to a large extent. Of course, the pro-American lobby crap on them, and you cannot openly argue with him, they will roll it into concrete, let's see how things go. The most important mistake made by the Brussels assessors, moreover, under pressure from striped plants, was the refusal of long-term contracts with Gazprom and the politicization of the gas market. Now they are raking it.

            You did not understand my statement, I did not mean politics.
            My idea is that for the production of 1 kg of products, 1 kW of energy is needed, the "green" lobbied for the supply of this kilowatt, but imposed a tax.
            Question-
            Why are we accused of the absence of this kilowatt, and not the “greens”?

      After the launch of the SP-2, edible table salt from the tears of a bloody clown will appear in stores, offering a 50% discount to earn money on pumping and steal the Akhressor gas a little bit, but it did not grow together. Therefore, the paychecks will gobble up savings books.

    "And in the morning they woke up" (V. Shukshin's story) Some begin to wake up and realize that a hangover from Russophobia is heavy and costly. In the meantime, many still have "green" devils in their eyes and the "Russian threat". For these, the hangover will be even worse in cold apartments and an economy that slows down due to a lack of resources.

        So there the usual people should be. They themselves chose such a "jolly" ... empty them and bred them like suckers, deceived, this is not an excuse, as it is.
        And the pianists and others around him ... it is easy to fall into warm lands! Those who picked up greens and a landing site on warm shores bought.

    One politician from one of the parties does not decide anything. Everyone is waiting for the creation of the Coalition, which will include a bunch of greens. When this happens, then we'll see.

      There will be opposition to any coalition ... the SPD and the CDU / CSU have nothing to break apart, and the Alternative will not doze off, and in the eastern lands of Germany it is in second place ... the covid has not ended, migrants go and go, annual inflation is the maximum value since 1993, there is no agreement in the EU ... there is also the SP-2 ... and here the coalition is a swan, a crab and a pike ...

    In fact, the SPD won only 26 percent of the vote, and one can hardly say that they won the elections.

    Ukraine has offered Gazprom a 50% discount on gas transit to Europe in excess of the contractual volume of 40 billion cubic meters per year, Volodymyr Zelenskyy said.

    The clown cannot understand that the discount for pumping through the SP-2 is 100%.
