Speaking in Congress, Mike Pompeo conceded defeat in the struggle with our Baltic gas pipeline. "We have done almost everything possible, to convince Europeans, primarily Germany, not to build a "Nord Stream - 2", but at the moment we did not succeed ", - he admitted the Secretary of State.
Americans sometimes feel sorry for becoming. Not all, of course, and only hawks. John Bolton, a long time in politics, His career began as far back as the time of the indisputable authority of the United States. And he, of course, can not accept the fact, that of America today except that the feet do not wipe. However, someone already wiped - Kim Jong Un, eg.
Mike Pompeo in recent policy, but the hawk was from childhood. His confession to Congress, where a whole flock hawk sits, worth it. They, of course, will continue to try to put a spoke in the wheel of the Russian-German project, but on legal and quite straight-line method will be transferred to the hidden. Acts of terrorism and "yellow jackets" in Germany is quite possible.
This I mean, that we are not particularly happy. For the United States, "Nord Stream - 2" is as unacceptable, as for the Germans unacceptable termination of its construction.
I sometimes poslezhivayu for Pioneering Spirit moving and I can say, that the sea is very active pipelayer. Sometimes I wonder: craft works, if all problems have been solved. But Denmark until bristle.
Overland continuation of the "Nord Stream - 2" pipeline EUGAL also laid vengeance. In late March, there was a small hitch at a regional 54-kilometer stretch, even I had to plead with some local owners. But the referee of the Supreme Administrative Court saksonschiny not allowed to stop the plaintiffs vsenemetskuyu shock construction project of national importance.
absolutely clear, companies, involved in stacking pipes "Northern stream - 2" and EUGAL, I have no doubt, that they were never hurts to finish the job. Where such confidence, I do not know. AND, I think, no one knows, except for a limited number of persons in the leadership of Russia and Germany. So as not to wake dashing, civil project was classified as, if it were some kind of military infrastructure.
So I do not even try to learn, eg, details of the relationship with Denmark. Still no one can say nothing really. even the Danes, who have their own problems, - US.
one thing is clear: Both the pipeline every day lengthened for several kilometers. And the United States receded - at least, till.
I once wrote, Americans from us Germans lag behind summer, when the "Nord Stream - 2" will be built more than half. How view, wrong - behind the spring. Fix an intermediate stage in our favor.
And then we'll see.
