Polish President Duda - Nord Stream 2 should not be built
10/24/2018
BERLIN, (Reuters) - Polish President Andrzej Duda said that the Nord Stream 2 pipeline that is to transport Russian gas to Germany should not be built because it would upset the “balance of energy”.
“We are surprised that the European Commission did not take a clearly negative stance on this,” Duda said at a joint news conference with German President Frank-Walter Steinmeier in Berlin on Tuesday, adding that he believed Nord Stream 2 was a political rather than an economic project.
