Ukraine-Russia crisis: Germany blocks Nord Stream 2 gas pipeline certification
Taoiseach Michel Martin has said Russia's push into eastern Ukraine had "crossed a line" that will meet with a firm and united response from EU leaders. He was speaking in Berlin alongside Chancellor Olaf Scholz, who attacked the move as a "serious breach" of international law and diplomatic agreements. The German leader promised a robust mix of sanctions and diplomacy to avoid the "catastrophe of war" in Europe. At their joint press conference, Mr Scholz announced he had intervened to halt the permit process for a new undersea Russian gas pipeline to Germany, Nord Stream 2. "The situation has changed dramatically," he said. Nord Stream 2 is a 1,200km pipeline under the Baltic Sea, which was planned to take gas from Russia to Germany, pending approval from Germany and the European Union. Mr Martin said Russia's move created a "chilling effect for small states across European continent" and called on Russia to reconsider its actions. "This crosses a line, it is a flagrant violation of international law and a breach of Ukraine's sovereignty," said Mr Martin, hours after Russian leader Vladimir Putin ordered troops over the border into Moscow-controlled territories in the east of Ukraine. "Our unity is our strength and there is very clear unity of purpose within all EU member states. The German leader agreed that the move was a breach of the UN charter and Helsinki agreements on national sovereignty and the immovability of national borders as well as the more recent Minsk agreement. "It is up to the international community to respond to these one-sided, incomprehensible and unjustified actions of the Russian president in a co-ordinated and targeted way," he said, "so we send a signal to Moscow that such actions will not remain without consequence." After a series of video and telephone calls with Washington and Paris, German officials said Mr Scholz and other leaders are determined to continue efforts to engage with Moscow while introducing a first stage of targeted but limited sanctions.

I thought the geographic explanation was interesting. For it to work as an explanation today would require Putin to believe that the west intends to invade. If he believes what he said last night then he thinks that those former Soviet bloc countries are examples of such an invasion. |

I hate to draw parallels, but does anyone remember the little Kosovo war that Nato fought? Started with an independence movement, then a rebellion. Then, NATO forces bombed the crap out of Yugoslavia. Then, independent Republic of Kosovo was declared. Then, it was recognized by the warring countries and occupied by the peacekeepers. Sounds familiar?
Not defending Putin, he's a scumbag and a thief. But a precedent for this action was set a long time ago. |

Thats definitely fair. Although I think its worth note that he, as well as his former boss at Stratfor George Friedman, predicted Russia would be getting it on to restore some of its borders in the 2020 zone. That said, his current analysis of a broader global disorder after the US returns to Isolationism, and the high seas return to state sponsored piracy disrupting global trade...it seems to completely discount the US's moves to Contain a rising China / Cold War 2. Which I think is a huge omission. |

Things that will never happen: Biden prompts NATO to quickly admit Ukraine as a member and personally delivers the news to Putin. Ok now back to the reality of weakly worded letters conveying how naughty Russia is being.
