“The Canadian Foreign Minister’s announcement is confirmation of an exceptional permit granted by the Canadian government in July to transport a total of six turbines for the Nord Stream gas pipeline to Germany,” the company’s message was quoted by RIA Novosti as saying.

It is noted that there is no new state of affairs for the maintenance of pipes for the gas pipeline.

Earlier, Melanie Joly said that the Canadian government was still ready to return to Germany the five remaining turbines for the Nord Stream gas pipeline that were being repaired in Montreal.
