Who's Threatening Who?

After reading a report that unlike Britain and the US Germany are not sending weapons to Ukraine, I decided to do a bit of digging to find out why and everywhere I look, it seems that certain people (I wonder who?) are trying to stop Germany from getting her own supply of gas from Russia via the Nord 2 pipeline which bypasses the Ukrainian pipeline.

"Earlier in the administration, Sullivan and Finer were considered less hawkish on Russia than Blinken and Nuland. Those differences are believed to have played out in Biden’s decision to limit the sanctions he imposed on Russia and Germany related to the controversial Nord Stream 2 pipeline.Different leaders have been saying different things, with some pushing forth their own views on how to engage Russia — France’s Emmanuel Macron has said the European Union should start its own dialogue with the Kremlin. On the other hand, the United Kingdom has been public about its alignment with the U.S. position; it announced weapons shipments to Ukraine and unveiled that it had learned that Russia was planning to install a puppet regime in Kyiv. Some of the hesitation involves the fact that many of the European countries have greater energy and other trade links with Russia than the United States. Germany, which has long pushed for the Nord Stream 2 project, appears squeamish at times about coming down too hard on the Kremlin. Earlier talk of cutting Russia off from the SWIFT financial network, for instance, appears to have faded amid reported concerns from some European countries."
 
In fact, I wouldn't be surprised if these (bad loser warmongers) are thinking about cutting the supply of gas to the EU as they control Ukraine (and us) forcing Russia to contemplate taking control of Ukraine.
 
The west says that if Russia invades Ukraine gas prices will hike as they will turn the tap off??? It's their gas if they wanted to do that they would turn it off in Russia no need to invade, but why would they? Europe is a lucrative market. It has to be the Brexit bad losers who are threatening to turn the taps of IN Ukraine. Indeed I bet they already have been, and it's they who are causing the gas price to spike damaging EU economies including ours. These people just need stopping. Shame on you Biden, shame on our blackmailed Queen!
 
The good news is that Russia says she will give diplomacy at least another couple of weeks! Lets hope circumstances change in the way I hoped in this earlier rant.
