Biden Threatens to End Nord Stream 2 If Russia Invades Ukraine
President Biden said Monday that the Nord Stream 2 pipeline from Russia to Germany will not go forward if Russia invades Ukraine
“If Russia invades, that means tanks or troops crossing the border of Ukraine, again, then there will be no longer Nord Stream 2. We will bring an end to it,” Biden said at a joint press conference with German Chancellor Olaf Scholz when asked if the project will move forward if Russian troops enter Ukraine.
“I promise you we will be able to do that,” he added, though he declined to elaborate on how he would ensure the pipeline would be brought to an end.
