“It remains for us to congratulate all of us on the completion of the project, which is not political, as many in the West, including Ukraine, tried to portray, but is a purely commercial, economic project,” said Dzhabarov.

According to the senator, the gas pipeline will improve economic relations with Germany, "guaranteeing uninterrupted gas supplies."

“I think this suggests that we need to cooperate with Russia and no country in the world will get anything but benefit from this cooperation,” the parliamentarian concluded.

Earlier, Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said that Nord Stream 2 will start working in a few days.

The operator of the Nord Stream 2 AG project reported that the last pipe of the second string of Nord Stream 2 has been welded in the Baltic Sea.

On August 27, it was reported that the gas pipeline project is at the final stage of implementation.
