Why does/did US try to influence Nord Stream 2? Because that's what they always do. Pretend that they are friends doing things in others favour, but actually trying to affect things for their own interest, isn't it?
But to have an influence, you have to show sometimes that you care, event if you actually don't.
- alkonaut 5y agoNord Stream is one of few sanctions that could actually bite. If one wants to hurt Russia then sanctions are better than war. And we are running out of sanctions. It’s important to separate NATO, the US, the EU, the international community as a whole etc. These are overlapping actors with different interests and politics. They do have one thing in common and that is they want to avoid armed conflict and don’t accept Russia redrawing borders.
