The US probably blew up the pipeline? Who else? Only the U.K. Sweden and Norway have the military drivers to do the job beyond the US.

The reason was probably because Germany and France were looking to cut a Crimea deal with Putin behind NATOs back as they have since the start of the war.

Also there is a lot of US gas to sell from the Permian at $4+ and the US has a twenty year history of trying to block the Nordstream pipeline which came from the friends of the DDR.

Great work.

I would not discount the UK. Some chatter that one of its ships was in the vicinity. Boris and Liz have both expressed a desire not to allow this matter to resolve diplomatically. And they are both insane.

Also the U.K. doesn’t patrol the Baltic, our sphere is the Atlantic and Artic seas.

Didn’t know about Germany and France looking to solve the proxy war. So, if true, and it’s likely, what else will US do to destroy the world?

The US is getting a bargain, give equipment to Ukraine to put Russia out of its imperial phase at 2c on the dollar against their military spend in the last 50 years.

Germany is happy to sell all its neighbours out militarily as they did when they cut the Nordstream 1 deal by their ex DDR influenced ex chancellor heavily supported by Merkel who grew up in the DDR by choice.
