Russian Ambassador Sergei Netschajew and Minister-President of Mecklenburg-Vorpommern Manuela Schwesig visited the Nord Stream 2 site in Lubmin, on Thursday.
During their visit Schwesig reasserted her state's support for the completion of the pipeline, detailing that already 1000 kilometres of pipeline have been completed with only a few kilometres to go.
She stressed, "We reject the American sanctions against companies, especially against companies in our own country, this project, regardless of how you feel about the gas pipeline or about Russia, this project is legally approved."
Netschajew added he believed that the speculation on the project in the press is from foreign politicians who would like to deliver other energy sources to Germany.
