Germany will do everything to prevent the russian gas pipeline Nord Stream 2 from ever working.
German Chancellor Friedrich Merz stated this during a joint meeting with President Volodymyr Zelenskyy in Berlin, the Ukrainian News agency reports.
In particular, Merz noted that russia's massive air attacks on Kyiv last weekend speak not the language of peace, but the language of aggressive war.
"This is a slap in the face to all those who are fighting for a ceasefire in Ukraine, in Europe and the United States. Therefore, we will increase pressure on Russia. We are doing this in order to weaken Moscow's military machine. We are also doing this to pave the way for negotiations. I speak on behalf of Germany. In this regard, we will do everything to prevent Nord Stream 2 from working," he said.
As the Ukrainian News agency earlier reported, on Wednesday, May 28, Zelenskyy is on a visit to Germany.
Earlier, Germany ruled out the restoration of the Nord Stream 2 gas pipeline.
The Nord Stream 2 gas pipeline, which connects russia with Germany, was never put into operation due to the russian federation's war against Ukraine and the explosion.
