Nord Stream 2 is investment in future, Gerhard Schroeder says

The Nord Stream 2 gas pipeline is not only ensuring the energy security of Germany, but also is an investment in the future,” the ex-German chancellor, the chairman of Rosneft’s Board of Directors and head of the Nord Stream AG Shareholders’ Committee, Gerhard Schroeder said in an interview with the Rheinische Post.

Washington cannot dictate to Berlin which gas to buy, since American fracking fuel is inferior to Russian in environmental friendliness, price and quality, he said.
