Biden vows to shut down Nord Stream 2 if Russia invades: "I promise you we will be able to do it"
From CNN's Nikki Carvajal
President Biden vowed to stop the Nord Stream 2, an undersea pipeline set to deliver gas from Russia to Germany, if the Russians invade Ukraine.
“If Russia invades, that means tanks or troops crossing the border of Ukraine again, then there will be – there will be no longer a Nord Stream 2,” Biden said at a news conference Monday. “We will bring an end to it.”
The President, speaking alongside German Chancellor Olaf Scholz at the White House, was asked how the US could do that given the US does not control the project.
“I promise you we will be able to do it," Biden responded.
