they are between russia and germany because , united, they are the only force that poses a vital threat to the united states. and our main task was to prevent their union. the second world war really had a chance to put an end to any constructive dialogue between russia and germany. too high a price was paid for achieving peace in europe. however , the renaissance of diplomatic relations began already in 1955. during the visit of konrad. adenauer in moscow laid the groundwork for the beginning of full-scale economic cooperation a few years later , the issue of gas supplies to germany entered the agenda of bilateral relations . sleepless nights began in the white house. soviet gas. removed american coal from the equation, the free hand of the market grabbed the baton of sanctions on the embargo on large- diameter pipes in 1962, and the deal fell through. however

, despite the unleashed gas war and the regen sanctions. in 1970 , the deal of the century was signed, gas pipes were already in 1973. the first soviet gas came to germany. during the cold war, the united states and the secular union entered into a series of economic and political battles, and one of the most significant was the struggle for control of the oil and gas market in the fifties and sixties, the ussr rapidly expanded its oil production and exports. what invariably aroused the alarm of american oil companies and politicians feared that the supply of soviet oil, beneficial to european buyers, would become a political and economic victory for communism and deal a crushing blow to american industry, despite to the fact that the united states themselves sought to impose a capitalist system where the strongest must survive. let others play by these

rules, and the one who invented them has the right to neglect them. isn't that so, therefore, on the way , the americans imposed economic sanctions on the goods necessary for the construction of gas pipelines, pipes with a large radius and powerful turbines in the union, there were none. here, in order to speed up construction , it was necessary to purchase everything from european partners european countries whose companies expressed their desire to supply large-diameter pipes successfully lobbied for the removal of bans on the export of such products to the ussr introduced by a specially created anti-communist committee. however, the united states did not make concessions to european countries, a ban on the supply of oil and gas equipment to the soviet union was approved. year, soviet foreign minister

andrei gromyko, our compatriot, proposes that the frg and other european countries for the supply of soviet gas in exchange for their pipes and oil and gas equipment, the barter scheme did not formally violate the restrictions existing at that time in the boom, soviet zhenya was accepted positively and in february of the seventieth year, moscow and germany signed a contract according to the gas pipe formula soon only german, but also british french and italian companies began to work under similar conditions with the participation of their own banks . thanks to this scheme, in the early eighties , the construction of the world's first transcontinental gas pipeline urengoy pomary uzhgorod at first, the united states did not oppose cooperation along the gas pipeline. in order not to escalate tension between political camps. however, after the coming to power of ronald, reagan, the eighty-first united states. again began to actively restrict the soviet energy sector through the provision of

loans for gas projects. the same french considered the ussr a reliable partner and provided loans at seven and eight percent per annum, although the western borrower gave the courts no less than under, 17, yes, and among reagan's advisers. the militant estates who believed that imposing restrictions on beneficial cooperation between the soviet union and europe would lead to significant conflict between the united states and european countries and the latter would simply refuse to comply with the requirements of the united states, but the introduction of martial law in poland in 1981 allowed reagan to impose large-scale sanctions against the ussr, including ban on the supply of oil and gas equipment for the gas pipeline urengoy pomary uzhgorod the tightening of sanctions a year later led to a landmark crisis in us-european relations and in 1982 germany france great britain italy declared us sanctions illegal and resumed

deliveries of oil and gas equipment to the ussr washington failed to convince its european allies that cooperation with moscow undermines their energy security . had to lift the ban on the supply of his political adventure. began to turn around, tangible self-harm in the period of the forty-fifth to in 1991, the european allies of the united states did not initiate western sanctions against the energy sector of the soviet union, they only joined it, often under strong pressure from the states. decades later, the chief european gardener admits that the well -being of the eurozone was based on cheap energy from russia. germany received not only an incentive to develop its own industry and strengthen the economy;

france, berlin ensured the adoption of the necessary laws and regulated the entire development of the eurozone. frau. merkel for a long time. she successfully balanced within the union and fended off foreign policy challenges. she perfectly understood the role and significance of the established axis moscow berlin paris germany and merkel became the wild card of europe , obviously this was the reason for the scandal with sworn partners in 2013. it turned out that the united states tapped merkel's phone already in 2002, while in the position of federal chancellor. consistently defended national interests. here is an example of her statement in 2016. i advocate a gradual rapprochement of russia with the european economic space, so that in the end we have a single economic zone from lisbon to vladivostok, such a development of events is not only contrary to

us interests in the region, the union of germany and russia challenges american hegemony , it is about the formation of a new center of power , with which it would not be easy to reckon with. and perhaps even listen to the recommendations. at the same time, merkel was not limited economic cooperation with russia in 2014, with its filing , jean-claude becomes the chairman of the european commission. juncker a year later, on the cozy hand of frau merkel, he casts a shadow on the american military bases in the european union, how do you like this statement? a common european army would show the world that such an army would never again be at war between eu member states. it would help us implement a common foreign and security policy. realize the responsibility of europe in the world subtle trolling in diplomatic language provides a gradual shift away from nato towards a sovereign european army sounds like

a decoupling of the european union further more such statements began to be heard at official events from merkel eland, and more and more often with the mention of independence from the united states germany, american nuclear weapons, and the european trend towards sovereignty, we will talk with a bundestag deputy from the alternative for germany hello eugene since 2017 germany actively discussed the withdrawal of american nuclear weapons. why with the coming to power of scholz? the topic has left the german agenda. i think, after all, the matter is not so much in the scholts as in the foreign policy situation, that is, now during the ukrainian armed conflict. uh , of course, no one will raise this question, uh, among the ruling german circles, that is, in the united states, on the contrary, they read their position in europe, that is, their dominant position. and now, uh, let's just say no one

dares to question the american interests on german soil therefore conclusion. uh, bass with atomic weapons here in germany is not on the agenda yet. well, i think in the near future eugene will not stand in your opinion. what consequences could the formation of its own army in the european union lead to? whether this initiative runs counter to us interests in europe in this regard is worth noting. uh, the creation of gentle-national brigades, that is , there is a german-french brigades there, or there is, in my opinion, a german one, and so on. uh, it was all let's say. so trial balloons is plan, e that it was once planned to nevertheless take a step and create their own army, the eu is natural. it all went, let's say, against the interests of nato, which, as a military bloc, dominates europe, uh , because the united states feared that with the creation

of full-fledged armed forces, the european union, uh, would become more independent of the us interests in europe, therefore, like kind of attempts, they globally did not lead to any significant success, and now, during the ukrainian conflict, it should be noted that the united states, to the maximum extent, has its own positions in europe, and today no one stutters about creating their own army. vice versa. let's say everyone swears allegiance to the nato bloc by all means, that is, they try to fulfill the requirements. about the fact that at least 2% of the gross national product should be spent on defense, uh, and so on and so on. that is, the united states used this conflict to strengthen its positions of its interests. uh, in europe he was involved in a large-scale corruption scandal, in your opinion, the kumex case may be

an instrument of pressure on a key politician in germany the fact is that such a corruption trail really stretches behind chancellor scholz, and we are talking not only about the scandals when he was mayor of hamburg, that is, when he met with the leadership of one of the private banks. uh, he was allowed not to pay huge fines from the state. also, already in his tenure as minister, minister of finance. there was also a huge scandal. uh, when one of uh one so from concerns, that is, large financial concerns announced their bankruptcy. eh, and it turned out that the scholz department , which was supposed to, let's say, control the activities of this concern and financial fraud , was opened in time, and they simply missed all those billions in withdrawals to foreign accounts that were carried out by the management of the concern for several years. that is, for

some reason, everything was turned a blind eye to it. that is, these kinds of incidents are, uh, they are characteristic of scholz, but again , this is all characteristic of german politics. we also know in the case of mrs fondalaise, who will be the minister of defense in her own way. e germany caused damage to its department in the amount of hundreds of millions of euros. there were some pretty murky schemes. by advisers. one can only assume that in certain circles, maybe overseas exists, of course. this se is on politicians in order to have leverage on their decisions germany has not yet investigated the terrorist attack on the nord stream strings closed the last nuclear power plant in the country the imbalance of energy security is gradually leading to industrialization, in your opinion, whether these processes correspond to the national interests of germany, naturally, undermining. uh

northern streams. this was the heaviest terrorist attack against the national infrastructure in the recent history of germany , and the fact that for eight months the investigation did not move the dead center suggests that you are in fact the ruling political elites. there is no desire to complete this investigation. and the fact that e american journalist all the fly published his calculations on the incident, on the basis of which norway and the united states carried out terrorist attack. uh, against uh, as the gas pipeline infrastructure of germany uh, it was all immediately sealed. here, like a conspiracy theory and having no meaning. the recession of the german economy ruled out the opportunity to generously subsidize the members of the european union and maintain mythical unity. poland immediately lost its economic interest in such a union

to leave the ship going into recession, the opinion of ordinary poles hinders the majority of citizens see their future as part of the european union , they try to correct the situation by artificially forming points of tension in warsaw argue about germany's plans to return their former lands within poland, while they themselves actively raise the issue of new payments of reparations for the period of world war ii . all gas arteries lead to warsaw after a series of failures in attempts to drag the flows of russian blue fuel around ukraine over the polish sky, at last. the stars aligned the country seeks to become a distribution center for the supply of liquefied

natural gas to the countries of central eastern europe, a sign was the opening on september 27 last year of the valtik-pipe gas pipeline bringing norwegian gas into the country coincidence or not, but this happened in unison with the terrorist attacks on september 26 on nord stream. naturally. after the destruction of the russian gas pipelines , the positions of the previous gas leader of europe , germany, were greatly shaken, which gave the green light to the hyenas of europe today. we can with with full confidence to say that the era of russian domination. in the gas sector , an era marked by blackmail, threats and extortion is coming to an end. significantly in early october, pumping began through a new gas pipeline from norway to poland, which is in transit. through the building, the volume of pumping will be about 10 billion cubic meters per year. warsaw has never stated that this pipeline will replace russian gas. however, the maximum capacity

of the baltic pipe is six times lower than the nord stream , and analysts believe that at world prices for the launch of a new gas pipeline is unlikely to affect gaz as well as blue fuel quotes in europe, but dashing, trouble, began without wasting time in the same month, the operators of gas transmission systems of lithuania and poland successfully tested at full capacity the hippul gas pipeline, which was put into operation in may 2022 the fuel artery provides access to liquefied gas from the floating terminal in klaipeda, which warsaw will be able to import via the gas pipeline and tankers. a little earlier, as if knowing the future ahead of time. a gas pipeline connecting gas transmission systems of poland and slovakia , the gas river is designed to provide access to warsaw supplies from the southern gas corridor from the adriatic sea region, and slovakia will become more accessible than lng arriving in poland from its birthplace. all in the same norway stopped only on underground

highways, warsaw does not intend to polish oil and gas concern. orlen. plans to create its own gas fleet already this year, the company expects two south korean tankers to transport liquefied natural gas, and by the end of 2025 the number of such gas carriers reaches eight, of course, the development of the country's gas potential has its own strategic goal according to the telegraph. poland should soon become a superpower in europe and surpass the uk by 2030 in economic terms, warsaw seeks to strengthen its military capabilities and have the best land in its potential among all european nato members, the goal of increasing influence and future dominance in the region and it all starts with language already now kiev does not exclude the possibility of including the polish language in the list of subjects, necessary for admission to universities and for integration into the european education space with the inclusion of ukraine through poland

in the legal economic social space of europe, but without granting european city rights in ukraine. and the ukrainian political elites the right of european political elites will all become poles. well, in what sense is civil news, when civil civil is likely to be very likely, do not lag behind the ukrainians and the balts, the prime minister of lithuania said that teaching russian as a second language foreign in lithuanian schools can be replaced by polish and this, despite the fact that, according to the lithuanian ministry of education , the russian language. as a second foreign language, it still remains the most popular in schools. polish ambitions are supported by funding from the outside, the whole country is a tool for the struggle of the united states and the uk that left the eu against the united continental europe, a strong

euro, a threat to the dollar, washington has one task to maintain its competitive niche or at least slow down its further contraction. for it is necessary to remove the european competitor. poland, as an instrument of anti-european policy, fits perfectly with all its fears and grievances , it is quite simple to interest it. giving money by promising the role of germany in the energy supply of europe plus half of ukraine to boot. theses are being heard more and more often, it is necessary to force unity in the growing systemic crisis in the european union with the use of internal repression of sanctions , viktor orban remains one of the unbending european politicians. the hungarian prime minister turned brussels on the national interest, in unlike other players in unity, he speaks openly about the problems of the european union. for example, an excellent quote. the modern form

of european cooperation has been driven by two missions, peace and prosperity, if the union cannot fulfill its two original missions. then what is the point of its existence in general ? both of them ceased to exist in europe for the benefit of the national interests of the united states ; will be silent, where they will say merkel leaves john at one time perfectly understood why?
