“The permission of Denmark is the last link, now the project has all the approvals. If I'm not mistaken, the Danish part (is. - RT ) is 140 km, that is, for two branches it is 280 km. I am very confident that the construction work will be completed this year, ”Teren quotes Merena.

At the same time, he found it difficult to name the start dates for laying in the Danish section, noting the growing complexity of weather conditions in the Baltic with the approaching winter, and also that this factor is taken into account in the construction schedule.

Earlier, the Chairman of the Federation Council Commission on Information Policy Alexey Pushkov commented on the statement of the Prime Minister of Poland Mateusz Moravecki, who accused the EU countries of supporting Nord Stream-2.

According to him, Warsaw has no “weighty arguments” against the project.

On October 30, Denmark issued permission to lay Nord Stream 2 on the country's continental shelf.

The leading analyst of the National Energy Security Fund Igor Yushkov in an interview with the NSN appreciated this decision.
