here are a few snippets of "fake news" ...
"As well as flying in the face of Brussels’ foreign policy, the pipeline bypasses Ukraine and Eastern European EU countries, depriving them of valuable transit fees and exacerbating the bloc’s crippling addiction to Russian gas imports, while strengthening Russian influence. Gazprom supplies almost 40 percent of Europe’s gas supply."
"Mr Trump may have exaggerated when he described Germany as a
“captive of Russia” but even the most slavish admirers of the EU were forced to admit the volatile US president had a point."
Mr Trump has intentionally poked a hornet’s nest lurking under the EU façade of unity. “Trump is anything but stupid,” said an aide to a senior EU official. “He is serious and methodical in sowing divisions.”
"It was a clever rebuke to Mrs Merkel and the EU, which has voiced fears over the volatile US president’s meeting with Vladimir Putin at the end of this week. On Tuesday, Donald Tusk, the president of the European Council, warned Mr Trump to remember
who his real allies were before meeting the Russian strongman leader."
"Such was the commission’s horror at the German plan it looked to block it. Now, that decision has been kicked to EU governments. Approval is being doggedly blocked by
countries such as Poland. Despite that, construction of the pipeline has begun on Russian territory, although not yet in the EU."
"Meanwhile, Poland plans to pay the US up to $2 billion to station an American armoured division on its territory in a sign of Warsaw’s lack of faith in its European allies."
Trump calls out crooked Merkel!
