The Ukrainian leader noted that Kiev and the Austrian authorities have different views on the construction of the gas pipeline.

According to him, he understands "all the difficulties, all investments."

“But with all this, I understand what serious challenges there are because of Nord Stream 2. And this is not only the energy security of Ukraine, I shared in detail with Sebastian, it will be a matter of energy security for all of Europe,” Zelensky is quoted by Interfax-Ukraine.

Earlier, Ukrainian Foreign Minister Dmitry Kuleba called on the West to reconsider its policy regarding SP-2 due to the situation around Alexei Navalny.
