What sort of statement from Russia would you believe if they did?
None.
But I would believe actual evidence.

So back to the topic of the thread
Why would Russia blow up their pipeline that gives them leverage over Germany and Europe and is highly profitable?
Doesn’t make sense in any game theory.

"It’s also disingenuous to not put blame on the USA and numerous other countries forming and coalition of countries and putting military bases right next to the Russian border boxing Russia in and placing an ever present threat to that country"
Have any evidence of the absurd russian propaganda that NATO built bases in Ukraine?
Perhaps russia should stop the land grabbing neighbor invasions if russia wants better relations with it's neighborsdin?
Why is Russia invading? Because they don’t want Ukraine to be in NATO and have US military bases on their border. Russia needs Ukraine to not be in NATO. Do you think if Russia tried to get Canada in a Russian alliance of 16 countries called RATO and then that would mean Russia had military bases 10 miles from Buffalo do you think we would invade Canada first? You Dam right we would
I thought it was the US funded nazi bio weapon labs?
Perhaps russia would have fewer enemies on it's borders if russia stopped with the land grabbing neighbor invading?
But no, we wouldn't invade Canada any more than we invaded cuba and venezuela.
I didn’t say anything about Nazi bio weapons labs in Ukraine but nice StrawMan argument…..lol

Sure looks that way. Biden said he'd end the pipeline if Russia invaded Ukraine.
Russia invaded Ukraine, pipeline ended.
Promises made, promises kept.

He was speaking about 1 of the 2 pipelines, the one that russia had long been seeking political permission to start using.
biden also did not say the words 'take out the pipeline', that was all in your head.

Then the effects in Russia will be even worse than the fallout that would come from Ukraine.
But I keep hearing and reading a lot about "tactical nukes may be used in Ukraine."
Depending on the size, they can be very low yields, but Id watch for the withdrawal of Russian troops, and rumors they really are at an operational disadvantage in a nuclear environment, so much so if used it will be a vengeance weapon as much as anything.
