石油圈中國石化新聞網訊 據路透社柏林報道，德國一位資深外交官上周四表示，盡管美國的反對和國內日益增長的擔憂，但德國仍應完成俄羅斯支持北溪-2天然氣管道項目，且未來的能源項目應由歐盟協調。 慕尼黑安全會議主席沃爾夫岡·辛格表示，110億美元項目最初的“出生缺陷”是，歐洲條約允許德國政府將該項目視為純粹的商業項目。 事實上，他告訴記者，很明顯，這樣一個大型項目顯然具有政治性質，特別是考慮到俄羅斯在2014年吞并烏克蘭的克里米亞地區以及近年來的其他行動。 這條管道將把天然氣通過波羅的海直接輸送到德國，但在某些地區受到了批評，因為它將剝奪烏克蘭利潤豐厚的天然氣運輸費用，從而有可能使烏克蘭未來更加脆弱。 自莫斯科吞并克里米亞以來，德國和俄羅斯一直存在分歧，但兩國在這條管道上有著共同的利益，這條管道將使目前管線的產能增加一倍。 俄羅斯天然氣巨頭俄羅斯天然氣工業股份公司正與西方合作伙伴—德國能源集團Uniper、德國油氣公司溫特豪爾、Engie能源集團、奧地利石油天然氣集團OMV和殼牌聯手建設該項目。 辛格提醒稱，不要在2019年底項目完成之時放棄這個項目，理由是德國外交政策的重點是一致性和可持續性，現在說放棄該項目將不利于德國的外交政策。 本周，美國駐柏林大使理查德·格雷內爾因告訴參與該項目的德國公司，如果他們繼續實施已經深入的計劃，他們可能會受到制裁。 德國表示，美國對北溪-2項目的制裁是解決這一爭端的錯誤方式。 詹曉晶摘自路透社 原文如下： Germany should stick to Nord Stream 2 project – MSC chairman Germany should finish the Russian-backed Nord Stream 2 gas pipeline despite U.S. opposition and growing domestic concerns, but future energy projects should be coordinated by the European Union, a veteran German diplomat said on Thursday. Wolfgang Ischinger, chairman of the Munich Security Conference, said the initial “birth defect” of the $11 billion project was the fact that European treaties had allowed the German government to deem the project as purely commercial. In fact, he told reporters, it was clear that such a large project clearly had a political nature, particularly given Russia’s annexation of the Crimea region of Ukraine in 2014 and other actions in recent years. The pipeline, which would carry gas straight to Germany under the Baltic Sea, has been criticised in some quarters because it would deprive Ukraine of lucrative gas transit fees, potentially making Kiev more vulnerable in the future. Germany and Russia have been at odds since Moscow annexed Crimea, but both countries have a common interest in the pipeline, which will double capacity of the current route. Russian gas giant Gazprom is building the project jointly with Western partners Uniper, Wintershall , Engie, OMV and Shell. Ischinger cautioned against abandoning the project as it neared its completion date of late 2019, citing German foreign policy’s focus on consistency and sustainability. “Saying ‘forget it’ now would not be good German foreign policy.” The U.S. ambassador in Berlin, Richard Grenell, drew fire this week for telling German companies involved in the project that they could face sanctions if they continued with the plan that is already far advanced. Germany says U.S. sanctions against Nord Stream 2 would be the wrong way to solve the dispute. ? ?
