It was OBVIOUS from the start that this was an attack on Germany (and Europe to a lesser extent). The question now is which Western country did it and will they get punished?
BlinkenIdiot welcomed the destruction of the NordStream pipelines as a great opportunity for America....
Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.
Seems to me that the US attacked Germany.
Per Article 5, this authorizes the other NATO countries to attack the US.
Thanks for the laughs.
Thanks for the laughs.
Why is it still alive after a demonstrated history of failure and $trillions in deficit spending?
Because it provides fabulous wealth to a select few
I suggest that the Arabs and Israel want to supply the Euro market and have economic motivation of a real nature.
Russia has been at war in Syria for years partially to prevent a pipeline to Europe. Russia now knows that there can be retribution for war elsewhere
Just a thought
Coincidence?
I thought that line was already in place and working but did not have adequate supply capability from the Norway fields
It has nowhere near the capacity of NS. I guess in their position now, that will have to do.
Bkmk
NS 1
Total combined capacity of the four pipes is 110 million cubic metres per annum (3.9 billion cubic feet per annum) of natural gas.
NS2
Was not operational yet. The construction of the pipeline started in 2011, to expand the Nord Stream line and double annual capacity to 110 billion cubic metres (3.9 trillion cubic feet).
Baltic Pipe
It transports natural gas from the North Sea to Poland via Denmark at up to 10 billion cubic metres (350 billion cubic feet) per year.
Guess it is quite a bit smaller but since NS1 and NS2 are gone, it’s more than the zero CU FT they’re putting out.
Baltic Pipe officially became operational on 27 September 2022,[7] one day after a series of as of yet unexplained explosions on 26 September 2022 rendered the competing Nord Stream 1 and Nord Stream 2 pipelines from Russia to Germany inoperable.[8]
There are plans for more. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baltic_Pipe#/media/File:Zrzut_ekranu_2016-06-01_o_22.03.57.png
Job #1...
Publicly release highly detailed and comprehensive videos and stills of all the damage.
I want see for myself what happened before I start believing unsubstantiated claims that the explosions equaled 700 kg of TNT and were delivered by highly sophisticated underwater drones.
Job #2...
How long will it take to repair the pipe line?
It had to be constructed and laid in place from the surface.
Hard to believe it would take more than two or three weeks to replace a couple hundred feet of concrete encased pipe.
It cannot involve any NATO (USN dominated) countries.
Otherwise, it would be like the FBI investigating what went wrong at WACO.
The same UUVs that [possibly] placed the demo charges, using underwater sonar and video, cannot be the source of the video evidence showing the damage.
.
Yeah, but now it’s flooded also.
One thing is glaringly obvious. Those waters are heavily patrolled, and under constant surveillance by satellites and a swarm of NATO patrol planes.
The dog that didn’t bark…
