US has threatened Germany energy independence in favour of wanting to allow the crooks in Ukraine to blackmail Europe. Funny how Europe is saying no.
I dont believe I said anywhere they shut off German gas. They did weaponize NG at that point. If you think Vlad would hesitate to use gas as a bargaining tool, you're wrong.

I must say I find it odd you like Trump because he doesnt start wars but you admire Putin because he does.
