The pipelines are still there. They just destroyed a section of it. But its full of seawater (at least brackish) now which isn’t a good thing metallurgically. If not repaired soon, it might not be repairable.

NS2 is operable. The Russians will mothball the other 3 pipes and if Germany ever allows natural gas to flow through them Gazprom will make the same profit supplying less gas.
No, Reuters reported it doesn’t need to be repaired to be mothballed. Russia has already lost the market share to American LNG and so it isn’t even in Russia’s interests to repair NS1.
I don't usually seek engineering advice from Reuters. (g) Something would have to be done to get the water out of the line before long otherwise corrosion and marine life could irreparably damage it. I've seen entire pipelines ruined by seawater exposure. It would be in Europe's interest to have access to Russian gas. Pipeline gas should be cheaper....no LNG liquifaction and vaporization plants or LNG ships required. Easier to vary pipeline supply rates in immediate response to changing demand. Make the US and Russia bid against each other for gas supply contracts. Putting all one's eggs in a single basket is never a good idea...as they have just learned. I don't think I'd be real comfortable depending 100% on LNG from a politically-unstable country (the USA) that blew up my $$$ infrastructure. One of these days the war in Ukraine will be over, and hopefully cooler heads will prevail in Washington.
It came from the Russian energy minister. Reuters reports news. Go whine about America’s energy dominance somewhere else. You Trump supporters are such whiny little bitches.
Trump was great for the country—he was like an enema crapping out the Bushes and Cheneys and Clintons. Biden is successfully implementing Trump’s America First agenda and we are now energy dominant and both parties are anti-China!

I'm not aware that the damage has been repaired yet. Mothballing would first require repair.

Lol! At least we know what a woman is.
I’m not a nutty progressive and voted in the 2016 Republican primary. I’m a NeverBush/Cheney/McCain Republican.
I know several nutty progressives who have less TDS than you. ;)

Don't feed the troll.
