On October 19 local time, Polish Prime Minister morawitsky publicly criticized Germany at the European Parliament, saying that Germany's support for the "beixi-2" natural gas pipeline project led to the current surge in European natural gas prices. The European Commission refuted this.
According to the Russian satellite news agency reported on the 20th, moravitsky accused Germany that "beixi-2" has pushed up the price of natural gas in Europe. "The current rise in natural gas prices affects European countries, which is the result of our failure to make adequate preparations for energy security. Gazprom The 'beixi-2' project launched has pushed up the price of natural gas. "In his view, German support for the project has also led to a surge in prices.
As a natural gas project cooperated by Russia and Germany, "beixi-2" is a natural gas pipeline from Russia to Germany through the Baltic Sea. According to the plan of the German government, Germany will give up nuclear power energy in 2022, and natural gas will become its main energy source. Therefore, Russia and Germany have carried out close cooperation on the project.
However, since this summer, European natural gas prices have been rising. The European Commission expects that European natural gas prices will remain high this winter.
For moravitsky's remarks, European Commission President von delaine expressed opposition. She believes that the Polish Prime Minister should solve his current problems, rather than refuse to discuss with the EU or even "evade responsibility".
The report pointed out that Poland opposed the project because Germany did not cooperate with Poland, but with Russia. In 2020, Polish government spokesman Muller said in an interview that if Germany abandons the "beixi-2" project, Poland can provide Germany with its own natural gas transmission infrastructure. He pointed out that "projects like 'beixi-2' contradict the European concept of unity and energy security."
However, Germany finally chose "beixi-2", which led to friction between Poland and Germany. In September this year, Polish President Duda failed to meet with visiting German Chancellor Angela Merkel on the grounds of "no time". Some foreign media pointed out that the "beixi-2" project is a reason for the intensification of contradictions between the two countries.
