Tango__32, You say, "Just to bring home the point, France's Finance Minister Le Maire, over the weekend, noted that, "it's not a surprise" that the Nord Stream gas pipeline was shut indefinitely."
I agree that all i've read have said it's no surprise what Putin is doing with the Nord Stream pipeline.
You however must include at least one link to support what you say. Since no one here knows you, there is no good reason for you to believe any one here should be satisfied with just your word on anything. Off the top i don't think you will turn out to be as unreliable as so many of our conservative trolls prove they are with virtually every post. Hope i'm right, but you have to earn credibility here. And be careful with your words, you will be challenged.
"He also did say that EU Unanimity on Russian Price Cap was a 'Challenge'" .. yeah all agree with that too.
"I believe the EU Unity is all too fragile and will easily break up when the push comes to shove."
it would be good to see an article in support of that contention of yours. I disagree. And certainly hope your negativity there is misguided.
"Meanwhile, Putin is already playing up the issue saying that EU has lost its political sovereignty for these nations are pursuing polices that are detrimental to the welfare of their own people, businesses and economies."
Yeah, well that's just Putin spin. Hitler could have said the same about countries his invasions put under pressure.
