Russian Prime Minister Wladimir Putin turned the tap today on the new gas pipeline which flows under the Baltic Sea.
The pipe delivers gas directly from Russian oil fields to Germany. The gas comes ashore near Greifswald, which was once in the territory of the former GDR.
The pipe is 1,224 kilometres long and cost €8.8 billion to build.
Both historically and economically, it is a most significant day in the history of both countries.
