The Swiss-based company behind the Nord Stream 2 pipeline has filed for bankruptcy and fired all 106 of its employees, a local official confirmed to Swiss radio broadcaster SRF.

Why it matters: Long viewed as a Kremlin influence project that would increase Europe's energy dependence on Russia, Nord Stream 2 was one of the first targets of the flurry of Western sanctions triggered by Vladimir Putin's invasion of Ukraine.

German Chancellor Olaf Scholz said the certification of the $11 billion natural gas pipeline would be suspended last Tuesday, a day after Putin ordered Russian troops into eastern Ukraine for a "peacekeeping" mission. The pipeline is fully constructed, but gas had not yet started flowing.

  • I don't believe in Trump anymore, he's an illusion
So now Europe's chestnuts are going to get roasted as much as Americans. Biden's handlers the socialists have destroyed America's oil and gas production so Europe can't look to us for it's needs. The only people happy about the destruction of pipelines and our domestic energy production are our enemies....both foreign and domestic.
