The Federation Council commented on the idea of ​​compensation after the launch of Nord Stream 2

“I think this issue is not even discussed.

He will only cause a smile, at best.

And so any proposal of this type will be rejected.

I think that Russia will never agree to this, ”he said in an interview with URA.RU.

According to him, Russia is ready to cooperate with Ukraine, but on equal terms.

Earlier, a Ukrainian political scientist, director of the Institute for Policy Analysis and Management Ruslan Bortnik expressed the opinion that Nord Stream 2 could be beneficial for Ukraine if it becomes its co-owner and receives "5-7% of its value."

Ukrainian Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba said in an interview with Die Welt that Kiev would be ready to consider the possibility of negotiations on "compensation" in the event of the launch of Nord Stream 2.
