Yes every relationship has a good point and a bad point. There was a time when Pakistan (my neighbouring country) had the best of relations with US. Lasting almost 5 decades. Even allowed US to setup military base so US could fight it'

Both were blown. You might want to consult better sources for your information. Infact the first explosion was in Nord Stream 2, and 17 hours later Nord Stream 1 was blown up. It's literally a Google search away.

I would be speculating if there wasn't any noise about destroying the pipelines from at least one of the parties involved. From all the sound bytes I have heard, I have never heard the Russians saying that they will blow up the pipelin

Okay I understand the point you are trying to make (your concern is more about reserves). I'll differ with you slightly here: US dollar reserves are highest purely because we use USD for imports from other countries too. That is why it
