I completely support @SenTedCruz’s proposal to sanction those responsible for planning, constructing or operating the Nord Stream 2 pipeline. This pipeline serves to only enrich Putin.
I know this is difficult for our German allies, but now is not the time to enter into a business relationship with Putin that will increase his wealth exponentially and force Europe to become more reliant on Russian energy.
Until Putin and his cronies feel the pain, he’s not gonna change.
@LindseyGrahamSC How about staying out of a sovereign nation's business? If Germany wants to buy oil or anything else from Russia, that's their business.
@LindseyGrahamSC Europe has been getting natural gas from Russia for over 50 years! They get like 65-70% of it from Russia. Europe has invested billions of dollars into nordstream pipeline. Who are we to interfere in their business with gazprom?
@LindseyGrahamSC .@LindseyGrahamSC: “Use my words against me.” @ProjectLincoln: “You got it.”
@LindseyGrahamSC But President is from Germany. I’m telling you check with him. They could be future allies of ours.
@LindseyGrahamSC It’s painful reading from the Senator, but he’s absolutely correct
