Berlin: Germany is in contact with Russian authorities over the 2022 Nord Stream pipeline explosion and can exchange information with Moscow, a spokesperson for the German Foreign Ministry said.
At a daily press briefing on Monday, the spokesperson said such information exchange can be done on the condition of not harming the investigation, Xinhua news agency reported.
When asked to comment on some reports that Russia has complained about Germany’s investigation into the 2022 Nord Stream pipeline explosion, the spokesperson dismissed the complaint, saying that the investigation is still ongoing, and it is not yet possible to report the results.
