WASHINGTON, Feb 7 (Reuters) - U.S. President Joe Biden on Monday warned that if Russia invades Ukraine, there would be no Nord Stream 2, but did not specify how he would go about ensuring the controversial pipeline would not be used.
Speaking at a joint news conference with German Chancellor Olaf Scholz, Biden said, "If Russia invades... again, then there will be longer Nord Stream 2. We will bring an end to it."
When asked how he would do that, he responded, "I promise you we will be able to do it."
Europe's most divisive energy project, Nord Stream 2 is designed by Russian energy giant Gazprom to double the amount of gas flowing from Russia straight to Germany, bypassing traditional transit nation Ukraine.
The United States and Germany have sought to present a united front against potential Russian military aggression in Ukraine, with Biden declaring the two in "lockstep" despite questions over Berlin's commitment to scuttle the important energy pipeline.

Despite this admission, our Ukrainiacs are still blaming Putin’s frogmen.
Confirmed Russophobia.
Which then confirms that many within FR are just like their Leftist Progressive counterparts who pushed Russophobia since 2016 with Trump. Ironic.
It’s an act of war.
Yeah, the US/NATO took one step too far. This is absolutely ridiculous.
Hey cranked (= Kazan), we already discussed this on your shift.
Show those Rudsophobia guys they are wrong!
And you don’t have to spend the Winter in the much darker and colder city of Kazan, making less money.
Hey Kazan, there are ways you can show those disloyal Russian youngster’s and your FreeRepublic play toys (oops... I mean friends) how to be a man, and make more money than you are now without even going to a dangerous recruiting office these days!
You have options Kazan. All you need to do is:
#1. Run quick and Jump on a Russian “draft bus” 🇷🇺👍
#2. Run over to the nearest “Draft Tent”, police station, grab that pencil and tell-em your “all in”, “get me to Crimea or Donbas now!”. It absolutely won’t matter about your age. 🇷🇺👍
#3. Get to any Russian military subordinate CIS country, run to a police or government recruiting office, and tell them there “ain’t” no way they gonna make you fight in Ukraine. 🇷🇺👍
Kazan, you can get an all expenses paid trip to a significantly warmer climate than you have in Kazan.
They may even let you keep your a cell phone so you can communicate with Katya (Cathi), or Mariner, Marshmallow, Marmena, PGR88, Mack truck, erc, etc. Kazan, maybe you could even get them to go with you!
You could have your own FreeRepublic fighting element at least, and with a few other FreeRepublic friends, you could have your own FreeRepublic Russian Platoon of ORC fighters!
You might even be able to send those pictures we were talking about from the glorious and great Putin built Kerch Strait Bridge, to all your play friends and fans on FreeRepublic!
You would be legend to all your play friends on FreeRepublic!
Just don’t sleep in a tent near Armiask, Crimea. We want you to keep communicating with us.
That fresh Crimean or Donbas air would be so invigorating!
And you can help kill those Ukes!
Did Joe just become the greatest Eco criminal since Saddam Hussein? That should help the RATS in the midterms. /s
Surprised to see this on the MSM.
100,000s of thousands of Ukies have already died for the neo-Yatzi ZelenskyyIdiot regime (which is soon to be replaced) at 5:1 to 10:1 kill ratios.

Quite unfortunate.
Hasn’t russia already invaded ukraine?
Kazan, your missing out on bagging some Ukes!
That’s not fair, you being stuck behind that table, in a darker colder climate in Kazan, and making less money, and not getting a piece of the action! 🇷🇺👍

Much worse- I prefer to call it the Russian Derangement Syndrome, much like the hateful, rabid Trump Derangement Syndrome. I marvel how Biden’s Ukie war cheerleaders do not have the eyes to see it- they have been had, again.
it’s a February 2022 Reuters article.
February 8, 2022 to be precise.
There’s quite a leap of reasoning from “Nord Stream 2 will not move forward” and “we will bring an end to it”, to having American frogmen blowing it up.
Biden could just as easily have meant cancelled contracts between Germany and Russia, which makes sense given “the project’s in Germany’s control”.
Russia is daft enough to cause an ecological disaster on someone else’s turf. So is America. But Russia doesn’t care about causing irreparable reputational damage to itself; it’s already screwing the pooch on that front.
So Kazan, it appears you being stuck behind that table, already making less money, being stuck in that darker colder Kazan image, and missing out on bagging some Ukes, are also missing out on plunder and American souvenirs!
Kazan, what are you waiting for, you could be getting rich off this whole thing, and move to Guatemala, Nicaragua, Venezuela, Cuba, or Mexico!
Think warm climate/warm water retirement, and Vodka paradise!
