The pipeline is part of Germany’s own impetus towards Russia (initiated by Merkel’s predecessor Gerhardt Schröder and backed by Merkel) and stabbing the USA in the back, never mind the US allies in Eastern Europe. Try looking deeper into it.
Germany already has NordStream 1 and wants Nordstream 2. That’s their decision, not ours. We are pushing them to the East. It’s monumentally stupid.
The whole reason for this pipeline is that it’s the only way to get Russian gas to Europe without going through the Ukrainian corruption. And Ukraine is the favorite pet of DC. The globalists and neocons love them some Ukraine.
