  1. Russia was under no contractual obligation the moment Germany announced sanctions against Russia and the moment Germany announced it no longer wanted to import energy from Russia. All that Russia did, when it turned off the Nordstream tap, was to assist Germany to move forward with its announced plans of ceasing to import Russian energy.

  2. just hilarious that DW thinks anyone is actually investigating this act of terrorism.

  3. even though Joe Biden promised to do it!

  4. How can the US lose from destroying Nordstream? Biden promised, in 2022, that he would destroy Nordstream and there was not one single word of protest from ANYONE in the West! Get real!

  5. So, in THIRTEEN minutes of exploring this topic, not enough time to repeat Joe Biden's PROMISE to blow up Nordstream, NOR to feature the Polish foreign minister's tweet ..."THANK YOU USA" I think we can see very weak and biased reporting when we see it. Thanks DW, this was instructive. Better chance of getting meaningful answers from RT.

  6.  @serebii666  simple question for you. according to the contractual obligations of Russia's oil and gas exports to Germany, how and in what form was Germany to pay?

  7.  @serebii666  and the second part of the question? by what means were payments supposed to be made? cash in suitcases?

  8.  @serebii666  oh, believe me, some of us are educated on this topic, before you go jumping on your high horse of moral and academic superiority. now, you mentioned "unprecedented maintenance". first, describe exactly what the precedented maintenance was.

  9.  @serebii666  curious you mention "EU has paid for something Russia has not delivered". can you think of anything that Russia had paid for but that, suddenly, went undelivered? oh, something like, maybe, banking services in the EU? Or did Russia pay for its accounts to be frozen in the EU, and the EU was just delivering on a service already paid for?

  10.  @serebii666  you must admit, it is a curious business model, to tell your number one supplier that you no longer want to do business with said supplier, but that you also demand the right to determine exactly when said business relationship ends.

  11.  @serebii666  no, i asked you to explain the precedented maintenance. what was the normal maintenance schedule? you trumpeted yourself as the one that knows all this stuff, so presumably, before you wrote "unprecedented maintenance" you knew exactly what the Nordstream precedented maintenance was. Suddenly, you seem quite ignorant! Suddenly your argument is the academically vacuous "Russia is to blame, Russia is to blame". interesting. Now, the compressors that were sent to Siemens in Canada, was there anything in the existing contracts that the Canadians broke there, yes or no? Believe me, "expert", your grilling has only just begun, because you absolutely stink of being a propagandist and not an expert, but go ahead, keep educating me. answer the questions, please, oh expert on contracts.
