Actually, Germany has no choice but to grin and bear the destruction of Nord Stream. NATO is one of the glues binding the EU (the kinder, gentler German Empire), and an important one, and the US is the King Daddy of NATO. There are advantages to being a NATO member, but also a price: you become a vassal state of the US and your foreign policy is subordinated to US foreign policy.
Also, German leadership does not want the US implicated in the destruction of Nord Stream (Germans own 49% of it). US destruction of the pipelines says “we don’t trust Germany not to use Russian gas” and “we can act with impunity to enforce our idea of where you source energy”. No way will they do anything other than keep their mouths shut and maybe obliquely blame Ukrainians. Already, German industry is relocating plants to China (including the giant BASF) and Germans are losing jobs. With the cheap Russian gas gone, it only makes sense to switch to China.
China is getting plenty of cheap gas, and will get more and more:
Industry naturally moves to where it can make a profit. For energy-guzzling industries, it is no longer profitable to operate plants in Germany.
You don’t mention President Trump’s sanctioning of Nordstream2 and Biden lifting them. Why is that?
To sum it up, Germany has become a submissive concubine of the United States.
For the Germans: Zusammenfassend ist Deutschland zu einer unterwürfigen Konkubine der Vereinigten Staaten geworden.
