German president: ‘Mistake’ not to object to Nord Stream 2​



German President Frank-Walter Steinmeier Monday admitted that it was a mistake to cling to the Nord Stream 2 gas pipeline project between Russia and Germany for so long.


"My holding on to Nord Stream 2 was clearly a mistake," Steinmeier said in Berlin, according to German media. "We held on to bridges that Russia no longer believed in and that our partners warned us about."


For years the U.S. and other allies of Germany berated Berlin over the pipeline project, arguing it would be dangerous for Ukraine and send a wrong signal to Russian President Vladimir Putin after he annexed Crimea in 2014.
