It will be interesting to see whether the German government has the balls to call out Biden over this...So far I'm only peripherally aware that something happened.
My currently uninformed opinion is based on a few of things:
1) The pipelines were already shut off and I'm unaware of any way Europe or whoever could turn them back on if Russia wants them to stay off. The only way Russia damaging its own pipeline(s) makes any sense is if they couldn't control the pipe's flow and that doesn't appear to be the case.2) The pipelines were a source of income for Russia, not Europe. Damaging the pipeline(s) not only complicates that potential revenue it adds the cost of repairs as well because I seriously doubt Europe or anyone else in the west is going to volunteer to rebuild those pipelines for Russia.3) The west and particularly 'Murica's long sordid history of false flags and just plain lies concocted to justify starting or perpetuating wars and destabilizing regions the west has labeled "enemy territory".
Until I hear more details I'm presuming any damage done to the pipelines is vandalism committed by the west as 'punishment' for Russia not being down with 'Murican global hegemony.
@EmperorDiLF is that commie hag Merkel still in charge of the fatherland or has she been replaced?
