Truthfully, did not expect this powerful statement from the German government. Would be nice for Poland & France to follow in standing up to Putin.

Tensions between #Russia and #Ukraine are rising with Moscow sending more troops: "There will be a price to pay, if Russia escalates (...) If there is Russian military action against Ukraine, there would be consequences for #NordStream2", our Vice-Chairman @RugeBoris points out.

I'm glad Joe Biden is our Commander in Chief.
He has some of the finest qualified leaders advising him, & he's trustworthy & skilled in foreign affairs & solid with our alliances.
He knows Vladimer Putin.
God bless~

understand why the agreement was put in place but under an authoritarian regime, it's a dreadful idea
