Russian minister says cancelling Nord Stream-2 would be `shot in foot`
Failure to go ahead with the Nord Stream gas pipeline expansion to double gas shipment from Russia`s Baltic coast to Germany, bypassing Ukraine, would be "a shot in the foot," Russian Economy Minister Alexei Ulyukayev said on Monday.
"Failing to implement it now would be a shot in one`s foot from the side of whoever would want to do it," Ulyukayev told a briefing in Brussels.

"This is about Europe`s energy balance, safeguarding security of supplies, these are most important questions."
