Revision as of 13:14, June 20, 2021
The Nord Stream II pipeline is a joint Russia-German project to build a gas pipeline directly between Russia and Germany beneath the Baltic Sea to avoid disruption of service in the event that Russia cuts off gas supplies to Ukraine. It was begun in response to the Magnitsky Act sanctions after the Annexation of Crimea in 2014. The project is being built by Gazprom.
From the White House press briefing room podium, Biden junta chief propagandist Jen Psaki defended the Trump era sanctions against the Nord Stream II pipeline in February 2021, noting that any new pipeline carrying fossil fuel from Russia to Germany “goes against Europe’s own stated energy and security goals.”[1] The pipeline is a massive scandal in Germany, with former Democratic Socialist chancellor Gerhard Schroeder on the board of the Nord Stream pipeline company and a major stockholder.[2]
In May 2021 Joe Biden waived sanctions against the project and its CEO, Matthias Warnig,[3] a former East German Stasi agent who partnered with the KGB whileVladimir Putin served in Berlin in the 1980s.[4] The waivers were issued only one week after a cyberattack emanating from Russia shut down the Colonial Pipeline, resulting in shortages and gas lines in the eastern United States—for which Biden absolved Putin before an investigation started.[5] The reversal of Trump-era policies made Biden appear to be a Putin puppet.[6] CDMedia reported,

The pipeline directly undercuts Germany's efforts to meet Paris Climate Agreement targets. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky accused the Biden junta of handing a "weapon," {{quoteboz|"This is a weapon, a real weapon … in the hands of the Russian Federation. It is not very understandable … that the bullets to this weapon can possibly be provided by such a great country as the United States.
