metadata.value: Russian-German energy relations, which have been continuing for over half a century, are
  an important component of bilateral interactions. Since the 1960s of the last century, Russia
  and Germany have been strengthening their cooperation, carrying out a large number
  of joint projects, setting up enterprises and building gas pipelines. In this article, the
  author examines the German internal political discussion around the construction of the
  transnational project Nord Stream 2, which, despite the initial approval of both sides, has
  repeatedly been the subject of controversy both in the internal and external political arena
  of Germany. The project was opposed not only by the Bundestag parties, referring to environmental
  problems and political contradictions, but also by European neighbors, as well as
  the United States of America, which have their own economic interests in the field of energy
  cooperation with Germany. The article presents an analysis of the discourse on this issue,
  based on the statements of the main politicians in Germany, party members at meetings
  of the Bundestag, as well as on information published in the German-language electronic
  media in the context of political pressure through the institutions of the European community
  and sanctions policy from the United States. The author comes to the conclusion that,
  despite the polarity of opinions on the construction of the gas pipeline, not only in internal
  political discussions, but also at the international level, Germany, while maintaining obligations
  to implement this project, is guided by its own political and economic doctrine and is able to make decisions, contrary to pressure from states with their own interests in this area
  of interaction.
