European partners in the Russia-led Nord Stream-2 natural gas pipeline affirmed support for the project despite withdrawing a joint venture request in response to the Polish antitrust regulator’s objection, Gazprom CEO Alexei Miller said Friday.

VLADIVOSTOK (Sputnik) – The Nord Stream-2 project aims to deliver up to 55 billion cubic meters of natural gas from Russia to Germany annually via the Baltic Sea. Gazprom has a shareholder agreement to extend the existing Nord Stream with the European energy firms.

"It [Nord Stream 2 partners’ meeting] has already been held at the end of August," Miller told reporters, noting that members had reached a working-level agreement at their meeting in Zug, Switzerland.

ENGIE, Gazprom, OMV, Shell, Uniper (E.ON’s offshoot) and Wintershall withdrew the Nord Stream-2 joint venture request in August, a month after Poland’s Office of Competition and Consumer Protection (UOKiK) objected to its establishment.
