Since the invasion he has made multiple diplomatically problematic misstatements that the state department had to walk back. Banking on American presidents’ “tough talk” will bankrupt you quickly. Given his cognitive state we can’t know, but why would he disclose this if it were actually on the todo list? It just doesn’t work that way.

But really, the question isn’t if we could or would, but if we did. Those are majorly different questions.

You're taking it literally.

There are many ways to not allow the usage of the pipeline - politics, sanctions, etc.

But you had to nail it down to pipe blowing.

Funny thing though, he was talking about NS2 which was left partly intact.

Isn’t it amazing how you get downvoted for bringing up obvious facts? The other striking thing about Biden’s declaration that the US would end Nordstream is that the German head of state was standing right next to him when he said it. Tells you everything you need to know about the relationship and sadly, the subservience of the German government.

It's just laughable at this point. You bring up a literal quote and link to the video, they say it was a misstatement. The mental gymnastics is impressive.
