along the touches the territories of baltics you states and we have the largest companies of germany the netherlands and france involved in this project which are very actively involved and i would like to thank all of them the gas from russia and the electricity generated from this sort of country you would want to be a reliable energy supply of the european consumers so we will strengthen the energy reliability in europe and it make life much more pleasant for many people in europe and this is the crucial point for the construction of the pipeline was preceded by a very complex approval process and face we already heard this from. into. also you know when i was chairman of custom and i was involved and many meetings and talks in this respect and in the. hands of the notational so we had to handle all sorts of problems but today it seems the plan is we can now see that these tasks were going on and i guess i've read pragmatic and economically efficient way and if we can definitely say that the new pipeline is state of the earth in the terms of environmental protection. as we just sa

thousand and five he's now chairman of the board at nordstrom's russia's new gas pipeline under the baltic sea europe mr further why should the e.u. increase its dependence on gazprom. we're not talking about a dependence on russia we're talking about cooperation between russia on the one side and the european union on the other in the energy sector. north stream is viewed as a priority project by both russia and the e.u. because it's been part of europe's energy networks since two thousand and six is recognized by the european parliament and the e.u. council of energy ministers last and from all appears from problem and ordered from that the energy minister to nordstrom's pipelines have already been laid what top of the third one will be added and what will be its capacity we haven't yet that we currently have at least two pipelines with a total capacity of fifty five billion cubic meters would be the question of whether a third or even fourth pipeline will be laid that should be answered by european stock holders of as you know we have gazprom on the one side and holland's got sunni fran

or of russians want to go to germany it's not offshore pipeline that runs along the bottom of the baltic sea it has been in construction since april of two thousand and ten with a key of this particular pipeline is that it will allow for russian gas to be transported to europe without any intermediary influence like ukraine and belarus which is the case right now of course to restoring the construction there has been some criticism from politicians or economists who are say you got this pipeline will make your of to dependent on russian gas but others of course have argued that vice versa this goes along diversification of european energy sources so the only please well for europe to have this pipeline running from russia to germany of course they have also been some environmental concerns bottle after all hurdles how did austin after it has been proven that this pipeline in fact does not present any danger to the environment or to european gas or energy supply the pipeline is going to be launched to date on the seacoast germany of course the russian president's visit will be accompanied

more than twelve hundred kilometers long it's an offshore pipeline say goes along the bottom of the baltic sea and when fully operational it will provide more than fifty five billion cubic meters of gas of russian gas to european customers now today the first type of the two pipelines will actually start working this second one will become fully operational by the end of next year so it died points for us we'll see all that russian gas coming for in in from russia one of the most important parts is that there will be no intermediaries so there will be no chances for gas to be abruptly shut off and places like below us or ukraine the pipelines cost is around seven point four billion euros but you have to remember that that actually comes at no extra cost for the european taxpayers because the consortium the nordstrom consortium shareholders will provide about thirty percent of the cost and seventy percent will be financed by the international banks the construction began in two thousand and five in russia the undersea portion of the pipeline is actually going from we've got it all the way t

uninterrupted flow of russian gas to keep them warm the nord stream pipeline will pump fuel along the baltic sea floor and straight to you customers without relying on transit countries like ukraine and belarus president medvedev is in germany and will soon start the flow. is there for life that you know you're there can you tell us if the pipeline can provide enough to keep the fires and are burning. oh absolutely now the pipeline is out as you have said is the longest one in the world it's more than twelve hundred kilometers long it's an offshore pipeline goes along the bottom of the baltic sea and when fully operational it will provide more than fifty five. fifty five billion cubic meters of gas of russian gas to european customers now today only the first half of this only the first one the first of the two pipelines will actually start working this second one will become fully operational by the end of next year so at that point your customers will see all that russian gas coming for in in from russia now as we have also mentioned one of the most important parts is that there will be no

safe haven for fascists we examine the case of a nazi war criminal who lives as a free man in the baltics raising questions over why some countries avoid pursuing the. crimes past. russia's president sent a strong signal to nato countries this last week over their planned european missile defense shield to me said if it goes ahead without guaranteeing russia's safety moscow will deploy its own missiles although he says the door for dialogue remains open peter all of it reports. hope. of the years of talks surrounding the united states proposed missile shield in eastern europe russia says the u.s. still won't give adequate assurances over who will be targeted prompting stern words from president made yet if. other measures are insufficient russia will deploy contemporary strike systems in the west in order to prevent further damage from u.s. missile systems deployed in europe the deployment of the is going to missile system in the coming year and region will be one such step. there is also the possibility this could derail the landmark nuclear disarmament process agreed to by russia and th

will flick the switch in germany and start the nord stream pipeline directly pumping fuel under the baltic sea. is in germany for us so the politicians have gathered in berlin and have long been at these the ask about this project will the gas be enough though for european households and businesses. well it looks like indeed it will be enough we're talking about twelve more than twelve hundred kilometers of pipeline stretching from russia all the way to germany capable of pumping up to fifty five billion cubic meters of russian gas to european customers a year when it will become fully operational that is to happen at the end of next year however at this point we're already looking at around more than twenty seven billion cubic meters of gas coming into europe from russia and that of course is going to happen without intermediary stations that of course is going to happen without interruptions and also so you have to you have to make a note of the fact that it's also not going to come with a me extra cost for european taxpayers the cost to the sweet costs that project off the north stream

more than twelve hundred kilometers long it's an offshore pipeline say goes along the bottom of the baltic sea and when fully operational it will provide more than fifty five. fifty five billion cubic meters of gas of russian gas to european customers now today only the first half of this only the first one the first by the two pipelines will actually start working this second one will become fully operational by the end of next year so at that point. we'll see all that russian gas coming for in in from russia now as we have also mentioned one of the most important parts is that there will be no intermediaries so the gas will not be there will be no chances for gas to be abruptly shut off in places like delivers or you create another interesting point about this particular gas pipeline is that it's going to come it costs for the european taxpayers i around thirty percent. of the seven billion. of the seven billion project is being financed by the consortium shareholders. the rest is being financed by international banks so customers in europe will be able to get more give us no extra cost

surprise difference in the near future does it mean the gas pumps decision to pump gas on to the baltic sea is politically motivated. no it's not so. the tariffs for gas transportation under the sea and via land pipeline do not differ very much construction costs are different yes but there are so many other expenses that should be taken into account for example permission to use land for building a ground based pipeline. this is a substantial expanse seitan with a pipeline under the sea we won't need any transit countries and it means that we are going to pay this money to ourselves. gazprom owns fifty percent of north stream shares and it means that we're paying half of transportation costs into our own pockets. thus compensating for the expenses we incurred at the construction stage. so this is a very profitable project that is one of the world's leading financial institutions and organisations which financed almost seventy percent of the project showed such an interest in it have you calculated long will it take for the project to pace way . it's not going to happen soon but anyway
