The protection of important infrastructure will now be addressed within the EU. A piquant coincidence was that the gas pipeline Baltic Pipe, which crosses the Nord Stream in the Baltic Sea, was inaugurated the same week that it began to be discovered that it was a matter of sabotage against the Nord Stream. The explosions on the seabed are seen by many as an expression of a new type of hybrid warfare. Is there a risk that Europe’s focus will shift, away from the war in Ukraine?
In Germany, the Nord Stream infrastructure project has previously been regarded as a project with a stabilizing effect. Hear about how the debate is conducted in Germany today. Also hear in the section about Germany’s new energy package that makes other countries in the EU see red.
