Plus Russia was the one that turned it off and blamed it on sanctions in the first place, when the actual manufacturers said that the needed maintenance was simple and wouldn't have been impacted by sanctions. So the whole argument that Russia isn't comfortable turning off their money maker is complete bullshit given that they were the ones that have had it off this whole time. I'm not sure if you understood my post. I'm saying yes Russia turned it off, so why would they need to blow it up when they could just turn it off. Russia blowing it up to avoid europe from siphoning off remaining gas seems dumb. I believe its on the order of 1% or less of volume in the actual pipe that gets moved per year. Russia is not that stupid. They know that this war will eventually end and they'll be fucked without this pipeline. Why? Because they can keep selling oil and natural gas to asia but they are getting it at a huge discount because theres no competition. Theres no way anyone in asia is paying full price for any russian commodities when theres no other buyers, currently due to sanctions, but in the future, due to infrastructure issues from this sabatoge. Very little gain from russia with devastating long-term consequences. Russia is easy to blame but theres absolutely no logical reason other than "lol must be russia they are crazy" Anyone give me just ONE good reason how this helps Russia medium or long term? <cite>Dan_Haren- posted [p:968450317] in Both Nord ...
