lpv:translated text	"Mr President, the planned northern gas pipeline joining Russia and Germany is to be the longest twin pipe undersea gas pipeline in the world, and also the shallowest, which makes it particularly susceptible to possible damage. There is no doubt that the scale of the extensive works on the vast area of the Baltic Sea constitutes a serious danger to the natural environment, to biodiversity and habitats, to the safety and movement of shipping, and, if there were to be an ecological disaster, also to the health of the populations of the countries that lie on the Baltic Sea. Under the Espoo Convention, because of the serious risk to the natural environment, the first step should be to consider alternative routes for the installation of the gas pipeline, without disturbing the marine environment. In this case, this would mean land routes for the pipeline. Construction on the Baltic seabed is not a bilateral issue between Germany and Russia, since, if there is an ecological disaster, all the countries on the Baltic Sea would suffer. Such an important project should be realised only in the spirit of European solidarity and with the agreement of all the states lying on the Baltic Sea, after carrying out a thorough and independent environmental impact assessment."@en1
