German Chancellor Olaf Scholz has said he has ordered the withdrawal of a key document needed for certification of the Nord Stream 2 gas pipeline after Russia's incursion into eastern Ukraine.

Mr Scholz travelled to Moscow last week to meet with Vladimir Putin inh an attempt to find a diplomatic solution to the ongoing crisis.
