We also can let it escape us that Poland was the first out the door saying the US is the only country with the capabilities to do something like this. That same country who wants that two billion in covid monies the EU won't release to them, who is arguing over land with them and who just saw a major fish kill off of unknown so far causes that could take decades to recover from. Germany has a lot to lose here considering the amount they have guaranteed to private confidential investors in their "encroachment" scheming. Having spent years traveling from one country to the next setting up their whole scheme using development bank monies as guarantees but also coercing countries who need money that the money will be given if they can dictate how it is spent and that Germany provides all the services and goods from those partnership agreements. Considering all that is going on between Poland and Germany now it wouldn't surprise me at all if this did come down to them doing it either and trying to place blame upon the US. Coming back to something else Kerry said was a couple months back we were so far behind in the game. I am sure Germany would like to keep it that way. (when I speak of Germany I mean Germany and their whole merry band of green earthers at the EC and WEF) They may not want to share a piece of that pie that Trump wanted, you have to remember they backed these guarantees, they are getting the system up and ready to run, that was initially based on guarantee to investors who invested not only in the pipelines in Europe but the refining capacity needed in places like China and India, now because of the US demands made on them they'll have to share in those profits and paybacks will take much longer. With the US set to open refining capacity in Africa to compete with China and India over the next couple of years this could throw a huge money wrench into the timeline these investors sought on their return. Not to mention Trump didn't want them in our hemisphere, remember he said we reject interference in our hemisphere, which means deals they made in our hemisphere is kaput.

So yeah the cards, like I said, are all out there it's just whose hands is going to show up getting played on this.
