Denmark will be officially providing Russia’s giant gas company Gazprom the go-ahead today to lay a controversial pipeline through Danish waters in the Baltic Sea. The approval comes after several months of heavy diplomatic activity between Denmark and Russia, including a personal phone call from the Russian Premier Vladimir Putin to Prime Minister Lars Løkke Rasmussen.
”We have given our approval after evaluating all the environmental problems. We have found the project to be fully safe,” says Energy Agency Engineer Kirsten Lundt Eriksen.
