    Can’t be. Russia-Ukraine war started in 2014 so this so-called constitutional sabotage must be something else. Or does the Germans who decided to prop up the Russian war machine through Nordstream somehow thinks it’s their pipeline, on international waters?

      Initial planning of Nordstream 1 started in 1995, building started 2010 and was finalized 2012. Nordstream 2 on the other hand was planned 2013, although building started 2018 so well into the war, but was stopped by US sanctions in 2019. Nordstream 1 was a project to connect the Russian federation closer to Europe, at that time a reasonable project (although still fucking greedy) Nordstream 2 is a different story propelled by greed and disregard for Russian crimes.

      Just trying to point out the nuances in German/Russian relations during the last 30.years.

      Dingdingding!

      Germany cares more about its economy than the people dying for its proxy war
