EPISODE SUMMARY
Nord Stream - two gas pipelines connecting Germany and Russia. One is functioning, and the struggle for the other is still taking place. For some it is a symbol of the division of Europe, and for others it is proof of Germany's realism and the realization of its own economic interests.
EPISODE NOTES
The Nord Stream gas pipeline is much more than an energy transaction, although many people in Germany have long had trouble admitting that it is also a political issue. The first pipeline with Russian gas has been flowing to the German side for many years. The construction of the second gas pipeline is close to completion, but the battle continues and divides not only Germans, but also Europeans more broadly.
It is difficult for German voters to understand why they would have to abandon such a huge investment, let alone withdraw from the concluded agreement. Others are convinced by ecological arguments related to the modernization of the entire energy sector. Nevertheless, there are also many critics, and the divisions take place within the political parties. There are no indications that the legal battle for putting into operation an investment worth at least 10 billion euros will end soon.
