Rusia invade Ucrania. Y Ucrania a Rusia. Vol. 2

¿Nadie se ha planteado que fuese el servicio de inteligencia ucraniano para joderles un negocio importante a los rusos? 4 gaseoductos pasan por Ucrania y ninguno es el Nordstream2

Que nos hemos enamorao, Merche.

De 2019 de la Deutsche-Welle:

Since arriving in Germany in May 2018, his US ambassador in Berlin, Richard Grenell, has continuously mixed in his host country's affairs. It was a break with long-standing protocol and annoyed many German businesses. Earlier this month it was reported that he escalated the Nord Stream 2 debate by sending threatening letters to German companies working on the pipeline.

US ambassador in Berlin, Richard Grenell: "Make no mistake: Nord Stream 2 will bring more than just Russian gas. Russian leverage and influence will also flow under the Baltic Sea and into Europe, and the pipeline will enable Moscow to further undermine Ukrainian sovereignty and stability."

Critics of those remarks point out that the US probably has its own business interests at heart as American companies would be more than happy to sell their own liquid gas to many European countries. DW earlier reported that German Economics Minister Peter Altmaier hadn't ruled out importing from the US, but only as a supplement to Russian gas, and very importantly only if the price was right. This was surely not enough for Washington

The United States, the United Kingdom, Ukraine and several EU countries have opposed the pipeline since it was announced in 2015, warning the project would increase Moscow’s influence in Europe.

Nord Stream 2 could deliver 55 billion cubic meters of gas per year. That’s more than 50% of Germany’s annual consumption and could be worth as much as $15 billion to Gazprom, the Russian state owned company that controls the pipeline, based on its average export price in 2021.
Nord Stream 2 could help change the balance of power in Europe when it comes to energy. At the moment, Russia needs Ukraine, because a large amount of the gas it sells to Europe flows to the rest of the continent through the country.
Scholz said Germany was ready to act together with the United States. Asked specifically whether Germany was prepared to pull the plug on the pipeline, the chancellor said “we are absolutely united.”“We will do the same steps, and they will be very, very hard to Russia,” Scholz told reporters.
“I promise you, we’ll be able to do it,” Biden said Monday when pressed for more details. Sanctions are one potential tool. The United States targeted the pipeline with sanctions legislation in 2017, 2019 and 2020, according to the Congressional Research Service. In January 2021, the Trump administration even imposed sanctions on a pipe-laying barge that Gazprom used to build Nord Stream 2.
“US officials have suggested the administration’s ability to prevent the pipeline from becoming operational is limited, even with additional sanctions,” Congressional Research Service analysts wrote in December.Germany has much more control over the project. But it also has much more on the line.

Ahí tenéis más interesados que los rusos. Y no lo digo yo...

Al final no me queda claro si lo de las tuberias de gas que pasan cerca de Dinamarca, ha sido un accidente, un ataque ruso o de Usa , la picha un lio

#14895 un accidente no ha sido. Lo más verosímil y tal es que haya sido Rusia, que es el estado autoritario que lleva haciendo sabotajes y asesinatos por toda Europa una década. Pero hay algunos que apuntan a EEUU diciendo que este crítico el nord Stream 2, cosa que es verdad, y que así logra que Rusia deje de tener a Alemania por los huevos, cosa, que también es verdad.

La palabra rusa hace tiempo que no vale nada y no se puede ni considerar. Así que seguro que han sido ellos, que son los que actúan así.

#14900 La CIA ya avisó hace unos meses de la posibilidad de un sabotage por parte de Rusia de los gaseoductos Nord.

Está bastante claro.
