US media described Putin's reaction to the Berlin-Washington Nord Stream 2 deal

32

During the discussion of Nord Stream 2, Washington and Berlin intend to conclude a deal that would, if necessary, "put pressure" on Russia and force it to sign an agreement with Ukraine on the continuation of gas transit through Ukrainian territory for another ten years. However, according to the Washington Examiner, the Kremlin understands that the Western "partners" cannot break political the situation.

Earlier, the United States warned Ukraine against commenting on the negotiations on the joint venture-2, especially hinting at the undesirability of contacts on this topic with Congress. According to Politico, the Biden administration feared that Ukrainians would speak critically about the upcoming deal - this would give Moscow decisiveness in defending its interests.



In reality, the political "attempts" of Biden and Merkel do not seem effective either to the Kremlin or to the American media. In this context, the Washington Examiner writes very eloquently about the "unfailing reverence of the government of the Federal Republic of Germany for Putin and the supplicant policy towards Moscow of the Biden administration."

Putin will only laugh at the ridiculous deal between US President Joe Biden and German Chancellor Angela Merkel

- add the experts of the American edition.

The journalists are sure that the Kremlin is in the hands of the political leverage over the Russian gas pipeline, and its boss is well aware of this.

      That is how Yes The partners took a rest, but they could not do anything request Now the time has come from European consumers to rip off profits at an accelerated pace, to compensate, so to speak, financial costs from some delay smile
      By the way, how are you with the tunnel in Helsinki? Is the work progressing? After all, there is no opposition and no sanctions. winked

        It's just an idea. I can find a hundred of them across the Russian Federation. Although in the Russian media, you can hear it every day. "In Russia there will be, they will build, and so on and so on." Putin's promises alone have not been done for a dozen.
        Rail Baltica, for example, will already be. They also tried and tried for a long time. In Estonia, a lot of things have been achieved, which in the Russian Federation can only DREAM.
        But the most surprising thing is that for you a simple pipe for two years is a trifle. Build a factory and shut it down for two years. ... Try to put experience. Stop using the washing machine for two years. This is such a trifle compared to the Pipe.

          Truth? Where can I read the details? It is very interesting to know which clown decided to build a road to a dead end?

          This is really a small thing. The comparison in plant shutdown is not correct. In this case, we are talking about a new facility and before its commissioning, gas is supplied by the same routes. There was no stop.

          will own you in your Chukhlyandiya, anger towards Russia obscures your eyes. It was in Russia that the former goldsmiths were built, are building and have achieved a lot about which in your dwarf unfinished former goldsmiths they cannot even dream of.

          The funny thing is that such an experience was staged. The pipeline has been shut down for 2 years, the price of gas in Europe is $ 450. A trifle, but nice. Vladest does not even understand that this plant is needed not so much by Russia as by Germany.

          This is not simple, but a delay in construction, in view of active opposition, the most powerful power on the planet, one might say a hegemon. But nevertheless it is built and will work, and you cannot do that. Wherever they sit, there you will sit.

      You do not understand where the funds for the maintenance of such "geopolitical strata" as you come from. But, for the Germans themselves, it's like "what." Therefore, the pipe will work on time and at full capacity.

        judging by the delayed reaction, there are a couple of versions ...
        the first - in the State Department not all slaves were called and the second - in the State Department they also like jokes about Estonians

            I pulled up my cotton clips, I can explain everything to him on my fingers.

            PS Estonia's GDP is less than the annual budget of the RF Armed Forces. When he talks about the projects of Estonians, he flatters my great-power chauvinism

          We are not sitting on the neck of Germany.

          you lie under the Germans. and you are comfortable. I know. but soon the Germans will get bored with you, as any strange, quarrelsome and a little inhibited woman bothers a man

          This is the guiding nature of your state. To be used (by Germans or Russians in the Empire). Self-reliance is not about your tribe

          Soon we will again take your country and you beyond the Urals - by a slow express. But that is if the Russians decide. In general, everything will be so - as we decide - and you again swallow any of the decisions of the Russians. They can take it away, or they can donate it later or redeem it with giblets and cattle inhabiting estonia

          In general, I would play football with the British with your country.

    the Kremlin understands that Western "partners" are unable to change the political situation

    There was also a lot of overconfidence in 2019, especially from Putin fans. So what? It will be the same in 2024. For Putin and Gazprom, money is more important than Russia's interests and honor.

And how did the Finns throw you during the construction of the joint venture to remind you? And how they merged the transit and waited shaking permits from the RF?

    Interesting deal. It turns out they married me without me. How can you make such deals? Grandma Chancellor is already preparing for demobilization, and who will be after her, will he want to carry out this deal? And they forgot to invite Russia when concluding a deal that directly concerns only Russia
