“The Chancellor shares the opinion of the Foreign Minister,” TASS quoted him as saying.
He noted that the Cabinet of Ministers cannot yet present a unified position on the consequences of the incident, including for the gas pipeline, stressing that Berlin is "waiting for answers" from Moscow.
Seibert also recalled that although SP-2 is often called a German project, in fact, companies from different countries are involved in it.
Earlier, the Kremlin said that it does not see the risks of blocking the project by Germany.
The press secretary of the Russian leader Dmitry Peskov emphasized that this is a commercial project that is in the interests of the energy security of the entire European continent.
