  1. Who stands to gain from the destruction of the 2 Nordstream pipelines? Russia? No. The EU? No. Scandinavia? Perhaps but unlikely. Ukraine? Yes but do they have the capacity to pull it off undetected? The US or UK? ?? Both have the capacity and both will profit, not only financially but also politically. QED.

  2. American and British fingerprints are everywhere!

    That is part of an American plan to eliminate Europe's competition so Americans can focus on China.

    And it is working like a dream with Europeans themselves embracing their ruin as Washington could never have hoped for!

  3. As the energy crisis intensify Europeans might start prioritizing their own interest at the expense of American interest and reinstate Russian energy supplies

    Now, even if subservient European footman want, they will not, Nord Stream was conveniently bombed…

    Washington imposes its will on Europeans again…

    This time it is a very real Mission Accomplished!

  4. Corection sir, TWO countries had interess to sabotage the pipelines…
    One is Russia and another is US.
    EU should consider that its allies have some plans witch dont include EU.

  5. What a load of balderdash! Why would they destroy what they built (financed)? They just needed to turn off the taps, which they already did. They've always wanted to sell the gas but only turned off the gas, hoping it will make the EU to ease the crushing sanctions. The Russians had no need to destroy it. It's like shooting yourself in the head. I can only think of one country that never wanted those pipes to become operational…

  6. Russia didn't do this, the US did, why would Russia do this ? They controlled the pipeline and could just shut it off. Biden said he'd stop it, and he wants Europe to rely on US natural gas. US wants the war to continue as Putin had wanted peace talks.

  7. “The only government that could possibly gain from this, in a rather peculiar way, is Russia. None of the European governments would want to do it.”

    Ignores Polish minister’s recent jingoistic rhetoric praising of the US for carrying out this act of “sabotage”.

    Total lack of objective analysis. Just rolls out the mantra that Russia is probably responsible.

    In next immediate breath Clarke talks about Europe and NATO having to police the Baltic and “the battle to defend what’s on the seabed” in the Baltic.

    Sad to say, this gentleman comes across less as a serious professor, secure in his analysis and rather, far more convincingly, as just another shill.

  9. "Armenia is breaking free of Russia's clutches."
    “The process Armenia’s liberation from the Russian Federation has begun. And it cannot happen without the support of the West,” political analyst Hovsep Khurshudyan maintains, concerning the working trips of two Armenian ministers – one to Russia, the other to the United States.

    The United States Is Considering Selling Weapons To Armenia To Help Defend Against Azerbaijan's (Turkey-Backed) Aggression.
    For the first time since the rebirth of Armenian independence in 1991, U.S. policymakers – under sustained bipartisan pressure from Congress – are considering the sale of U.S. armaments to help Armenia defend itself against Azerbaijan's relentless.

    Are there countries ready to sell weapons to Armenia? Opinions from Yerevan

    “Armenia has the financial means to acquire the necessary defensive weapons and ammunition. There are countries that are ready to supply, but buying weapons from these countries creates new security threats,” Prime Minister of Armenia Nikol Pashinyan said recently.

    After Nancy Pelosi’s to Yerevan and her statements about the US’ readiness to help Armenia, the topic of arms supplies was raised in Armenia.

    Security Threats Related to Arms Transfers

    The Prime Minister of Armenia said in parliament that reforms are underway in the armed forces to ensure the country’s security, and “it is necessary to reform the army as quickly and efficiently as possible.”

    “The US is ready to help, but the decision is up to Armenia”: Nancy Pelosi in Yerevan .

    "Not a single millimeter of Armenian territory is up for debate" – Pashinyan

    Thomas de Waal: Azerbaijan’s military action in Armenia has gravely damaged chances of a settlement. EU-mediated negotiations, the only viable peace talks, need greater international support.

  10. Весь мир наблюдает за тем, что творят российские солдаты по-украински, и невероятно, что в 2022 году солдаты могут делать такие вещи с человеческими жизнями. Мир никогда не забудет это время, оно навсегда останется в книгах истории.

  12. Is it not financially prudent that ulkraine should be offered asylum to nato countries to start over with their families surely if everyone who wanted left ulkraine and was given a better living and everything they needed it would cost half as much and would certainly leave Russia occupying a empty country on the boundaries of NATO

  13. at present Clark is giving his opinion, it could be Russia, but America, Ukraine or Poland, uk, Baltic states could also have a reason to damage pipe lines. either way Russia or not perilous times.

  14. to create instability why not blow up Norways pipe line?

    I don't fully get the reasoning for Russia to spend billions on pipe line under the Baltic to blow them up. some say to get sanctions off technical expertise and equipment lifted .this all seams rather long winded.Both Russian and American governments lie so time will tell. God is yet still in control 🙂
