Another round of blaming Germany!

I guess after the Nord Stream sabotage they need another issue. The whole of Europe took gas from Russia, but Nord Stream was the incarnation of evil. The press was full of Nord Stream articles and never mentioned the other pipelines.

Poland took gas well into May 2022, and only stopped after Russia demanded payment in rubles. The Yamal pipeline is still standing. Europe still gets Russian gas via the Ukraine transit pipelines.

So apparently the issue is that there must not be a direct connection between Germany and Russia, so the transit states have leverage.

What does Poland do itself? It routes the new pipeline from Norway via Denmark and the sea, avoiding transit via Germany.

Perhaps Germany should leave the EU like Britain if it is so horrible.

> Poland took gas well into May 2022, and only stopped after Russia demanded payment in rubles.

True, but Germany did the opposite and started buying the gas with rubles. It's no surprise that this caused some animosity.

I think that's misinformation. Do you have a credible source for this? Here is mine: Gas only for rubles: is Germany also threatened with a delivery stop? [https://www-br-de.translate.goog/nachrichten/deutschland-wel...]

Just have the pipelines blown up. It's easy, everybody's doing it.
