Russia’s announcement that it would reduce natural gas flows through a key European pipeline by roughly 40% appears to be a political move rather than a result of technical problems, Germany’s vice chancellor said Wednesday.
Russia’s state-controlled energy giant Gazprom also told Italian gas giant Eni that it would reduce gas through a different pipeline by roughly 15% on Wednesday. The reason for the reduction has not been made clear, and the Italian company said it was monitoring the situation.
The reduced flows follow Russia’s halt of natural gas supplies to Bulgaria, Poland, Finland, Netherlands, Denmark as Europe works to reduce its dependence on Russian energy amid the war in Ukraine.

Gas and Oil political? Who would have guessed?
Blockhead Germans. Send weapons to kill Russian soldiers, cut them off from SWIFT, close off all Russian branches of businesses, kill Nordstream II, refuse to return pipeline compressors sent to Germany for maintenance, .....
..and then act shocked and say it’s political when Russia slow walks selling them the one thing they decide they want to buy.
Amazing look into the WEF/DC/EU mentality. “We will sanction you in every way we can think of, but we expect you to race to fill any need it would be too painful for us to sanction.”
They best be nice to Russia...or FREEZE TO DEATH this winter. Their choice.
Of course it is political. Olaf imposed political sanctions on Siemens, preventing the return of fixed turbine.
Habeck and Baerbock haz Das Energy Sadz.
You knew the Blackmail was coming but partied on anyway
The don’t call Olaf “Oaf Doltz” for nothing...
And the sanctions, are they political?
Seems perfectly reasonable to me.
Maybe if Germany stops supplying Ukraine with weapons, they will turn the flow back up?
No Shit, Sherlock
By demonstrating whose hand is on the faucet, Russia is also making a statement as to who is in control. And it’s not Biden or NATO.
European winters can be very cold!
This is super interesting. What this suggests to me is eventually many European countries are going to throw troublemaking Americans out of Europe. And they know it.
US backs idea of another military bloc

“Washington would support a possible security alliance between the UK, Ukraine, Poland and the Baltic States, the US envoy to NATO says”
Gee, nothing gets by fritz.
Maybe Germany shouldn’t have started a sanction war with Russia. Whining because they are getting the worst end of it is laughable.
Blockhead Germans.

In trying to figure out why the world has gone so crazy, I wonder if the jab has anything to do with the obvious dysfunctional mind of so many today. Some claim the vax contains snake venom, which we know has an anesthetizing neurological effect on its prey, eliminating resistance and facilitating swallowing the prey. I’m just postulating this theory as a way to explain the amazing human mass psychosis evident in the world today.
Duh
Siemens (Germany company) owes a contractual obligation to service gast turbines that pump the gas. Siemens is in default on its obligation to perform maintenance, so the turbines were taken offline. The maintenance is supposed to take place in Montreal Canada. The refusal to perform the maintenance is due to Canadian sanctions. So Canada is sanctioning Germany.
