Yes they did. However Germany didn't blow up Nord Stream II, America did and torpedoed Germany's economy. Germany didn't impose sanctions on oil and gas that choked Germany out, America did. Given how crappy the U.S. treats its own citizens why did the Germans think that they would not get a dose of the same medicine? Also, Germany is NOT a sovereign country, they are a bitch proxy state, as past and recent history proves.
Nordstream didn’t “torpedo” the German economy.
An exercise for you - do the work - what financial effect did the switch from Russian NG to LNG have? What effect did this, the provable financial difference, have on German GDP?
Dont just say things, prove them.
If Germany is a “bitch proxy state” then so is every country on earth. Thats a bizarre statement.
