council to take a leading role in the investigation into resolving the issue of sabotage on the nordstream i don't. i support the role of the united states in this war against the soviet union, and the destruction of the norstream gas pipeline has no, no justification, caused significant damage to the german economy. and this has nothing to do with the conflict between russia and ukraine. this sabotage only made the situation worse. while working for the cia, i gained experience in identifying terrorist operations carried out in afghanistan, for example, such operations are financed, planned in advance , rehearsed, this is not done by chance, sabotage against the nordstream gas pipeline is quite consistent. my experience, my knowledge acquired during my work at the cia, when i started working at the us state department, in the counter-terrorism office, my first tasks were to investigate the accident with the plane pan-americans on the current disaster in okebra in scotland. it was necessary to submit reports on planned or expected attacks in order to provoke a reaction at the diplomatic le

insurers explained why they do not want to pay compensation to the swiss nordstream age, this is the the blown up nord streams. according to documents that the insurance company sent to the high court of london, where the case of the gas pipeline explosion is being considered; the explosion was a consequence of the conflict between russia and ukraine, that is, military action; war is not included in the list of insured circumstances. in addition, insurers note that the damage from the explosion could have been caused by or on the orders of any government, and do not agree with the scope of insurance. the limit of more than 400 million dollars, which nordstream insists on. the destruction of three of the four strings of the nord stream gas pipeline was discovered in september twenty-two. russia was not allowed into the investigation. law enforcement officers from germany, denmark and sweden took up the case. they called what happened targeted sabotage. a year and a half later, the swedish prosecutor's office stopped the investigation, and denmark soon did the same. germany remains the

just like with nordstream 2 and sanctioned that pipeline of energy going from russia into europe. guess what, president biden waived that sanction that congress imposed a mandatory sanction. and guess what? what came out of that, europe became dependent on russian energy. i never thought he would do it, but he did. and talk about the timetable of history, that was the first sign of weakness and afghanistan came after that. this was designed not from president trump. in fact, president trump is not bound by this. if he doesn't want to be. i think it is good policy and really the history of this president, president biden waiving congressional sanctions and we didn't want him to disrespect the congress on this one. mr. massie: does it bind future presidents? mr. mccaul: that can be entertained. we did this to tie president biden's hands so he would have to do this because of the lack of trust in nordstream 2. mr. massie: going on prior versions of the bill so maybe i'm incorrect but it does remove the president's ability to enter sanctions regime. and my concern here is that could l

mccaul: because he has waived sarchghtses, nordstream 2 and others and it is important to protect our children from the p.r.c., we didn't wanted it enforced. it could pass. he could choose not to enforce it. mr. neguse: if the administration put out on an administration policy against the bill? the part of my frustration is that i don't think it's a consistent argument to suggest that this president, president biden, who has forcefully, forcefully made the case against russian aggression in ukraine your fierce are about his abilities or his capabilities to hold the line and not the former president, which of course was the nature of my colleague's criticism from kentucky. mr. mccaul: we had a similar bill in the committee, they were not very keen about this bill in the beginning. so, i guess it's kind of a trust thing that enforced and don't a waiver like he has done on nordstream 2 and iran. and if i could, in response to mr. massey's not here, the financial markets understand the target nature of this action to address russia's egregious behavior, jerome paul testified it will not u
