Celebrating a criminal act during a war, by a NATO nation isn’t a good look. I don’t agree with the ‘blowing up’ of the Nordstream pipeline. All Europe had to do was stop accepting the products, which they still haven’t done, without destroying property or creating an environmental issue.

Here was another "proposal" by Tusk sometime back:
