“With an increase in gas supplies to Europe, the price will fall.

Of course, the launch of Nord Stream 2 is extremely beneficial not only for Ukrainian consumers, but also for European ones, ”the parliamentarian said.

He also expressed surprise that “the German regulator is still dragging its feet with permission to launch Nord Stream 2”.

“As soon as the go-ahead is received, the gas price will automatically fall.

This is beneficial to all consumers, ”Ananskikh emphasized.

Earlier, the Ukrainian political scientist Molchanov also said that the launch of the gas pipeline would be "financially beneficial" for European consumers.

In Germany, in turn, 60% of citizens support the construction of the Nord Stream 2 gas pipeline.
