„Business as usual” – Nord Stream 2 jako kontynuacja sowiecko-niemieckiej współpracy gazowej z lat siedemdziesiątych. Kontekst historyczny, implikacje dla bezpieczeństwa w regionie oraz polityki międzynarodowej
‘Business as usual’: Nord Stream 2 as a continuation of Soviet-German gas cooperation from the 1970s. The historical context and implications for security in the region and international policy

Summary/Abstract: Nord Stream 2 (NS2) is one of the most controversial international projects in the gas industry. The construction of the gas pipeline began in the period of serious tensions between Russia and the West. Gazprom’s European partners ignore the legitimate concerns of their allies regarding the implications of the investment for politics and security. The dispute is somewhat reminiscent of the Cold War period when Germany and Austria established gas cooperation with the USSR. The article presents the current political context of the gas relations of the European countries and the USSR/Russia and the implications of building NS2 for politics and security in Europe.
