Merkel stressed the importance of completing the Nord Stream 2 construction

German Chancellor Angela Merkel spoke at the completion of “Nord Stream – 2”.

At a press conference in Berlin, she called it an economic project to be completed.

“Our opinion – “Nord Stream – 2″ should be completed. I think it is inappropriate to link this economic project with the Navalny case”, –  she said.

In addition, Merkel noted that Germany is against American sanctions, with which Washington is trying to put pressure on the project.
