German FAS approves participation of European companies in the Nord Stream-2 project

Information Agency Interfax reports that the German Federal Anti-Monopoly Office has approved the participation of German companies in the implementation of the Nord Stream 2 project. According to the news agency, European giants such as Shell, E.ON, Wintershall, as well as ENGIE and OMV are planning to join the joint venture with the Russian Gazprom.

German FAS approves participation of European companies in the Nord Stream-2 project


It should be noted that the decision of the Federal Anti-Monopoly Office of Germany was made literally a few days after the Nord Stream-2 project was criticized by European officials in Brussels.

Recall that the Nord Stream-2 is another branch of the gas pipeline, which will run along the bottom of the Baltic Sea in the direction of Germany, from which Russian gas will be distributed to European countries via the internal gas transmission system.

In the film "World Order" (TV channel Russia-1) stated that the construction of a gas pipeline to Northern Europe is in the interests of the Europeans themselves. Vladimir Putin:
Today they say, let's build the “Nord Stream - 2”. Everyone understands that this is necessary for the very same Germany, which has abandoned nuclear energy and is unlikely to return to it. In Russia, a huge amount of this raw material is environmentally friendly, necessary, and we are ready to supply it.


In Ukraine, information about the decision of the Federal Antimonopoly Service of Germany was met with obvious tension ... The main question: "What about sanctions?". And this question clearly hung in the air.

        Sanctions are for you, and for the Germans, business and the opportunity to seize the European market for the distribution of Russian gas.

          And the Germans are "well done"! They crushed the entire European Union under themselves and cut money from it. Otherwise, how can you explain what was wrong with South Stream or Turkish Stream? The conclusion remains unambiguous - these flows brought money to everyone except Germany, and this is not gut.

          What the American concept does not take into account.
          It is for this reason that Germany rested its feet and hands against Nord Stream-2. Like, he can make Europeans dependent, and so on. We must continue to invest in the Ukrainian GTS. Feel where the legs are growing.

          Just now a prospect looms - Russia is arguing with Turkey, the Turkish Kirdyk stream. The Ukrainian gas transportation system does not need kirdyk. And then it turns out that gas is not enough for everyone.

          PS

            It seems to me that, as they say, we need to accelerate our partners from the EU by arranging an "accident" on the Ukrainian gas pipeline, preferably in the coldest time, let the European consumers freeze a little, maybe then they will understand that gas should be taken only from the producer bypassing all intermediaries and especially transiters smile

        For the sake of three hundred employees of Rusnano, the newfangled metropolitan club Duran Bar closed for special services, and the head of the state-owned company Anatoly Chubais turned out to be the main star of the New Year's corporate party. From the stage, he congratulated his subordinates on outstanding successes, boasted of an enviable financial situation, despite billions of dollars in losses, and said the words that millions of Russians are eager to hear from their employers: “Everyone has a double premium!”

          I will explain. there was a pipe through Ukraine - the "pipe" came to Ukraine. whose beacons - everyone knows ...
          decided to switch to the south stream. According to Wikipedia, the first gas deliveries were planned for the end of 2015. the downed bomber put an end to this project.
          further north stream. God forbid me to be wrong! .. but most likely the Finns will want to "restore justice" and regain Karelia. recently there was already an alarm bell with a statement about the violation of the state border by an unidentified helicopter - hushed up.

          such a disgusting feeling that a certain group of "exceptional" people is deliberately dragging out time because of a puddle while work is underway on laying gas pipelines, while huge resources are being spent, while hope for a bright future is growing ... and at the end of construction and installation work, an unwanted branch of the Russian gas pipe is systematically amputated ...

    This is to be expected. Germany as a result of these 4 threads of the Nord Stream 1 and 2 becomes the main hub and from it oil and gas will go further but with a payment for transit. In this way, transit countries are eliminated, costs are reduced and influence in the EU is increased. Well, everyone else who loses dividends for transit and those who did not jump on the outgoing train on time will only drool and complain about the bad Germans and damned Putin. Just a business.
    Moreover, if all 4 threads work to the eyeballs, onshore pipelines, in particular through Ukraine, will automatically become scrap. Forward comrades - high-volts were already waiting for pipelines.
    Well, no one canceled the Nord Stream 3 in the future.

    Ukrainian GTS

    reconstruction and putting in order of the Ukrainian gas transportation system will cost, according to experts, more expensive than building to build a new gas transportation system bypassing Ukraine (Nord Stream 2). At the same time, transit risks through the territory of Ukraine have not yet been taken into account, but they are simply huge.
    Germany, turning more and more to gas consumption, cannot but take into account the risks of transit through Ukraine and the risks of delivering liquefied gas by gas carriers from other suppliers (for the reception of which it is still necessary to build gas terminals and the gas price will be XNUMX times more expensive than the Russian one).
    For Germany, there is simply no alternative to the second branch of the northern stream.
