1. Dieser Beitrag von #RolandGoetz zu #NordStream2 ist inzwischen in der #ZfAS erschienen und, wie immer, sehr informativ. In zwei Fragen bin ich anderer Meinung als der Autor: Die psychologische Wirkung möglicher US-Sanktionen ist nicht zu unterschätzten. academia.edu/s/5d4a73959c
2. Es geht hier auf europäischer Seite um kommerzielle Unternehmen, die durch #NordStream2 ankommendes sibirisches #Erdgas transportieren und kaufen sollen. Werden diese Firmen es riskieren, vom US-Markt ausgeschlossen zu werden, wenn sich der Wind in Washington wieder dreht?
3. #NordStream2 scheint inzwischen toxisch zu sein. Viele derzeitige und potentielle Partner #Gazproms werden es sich zweimal überlegen, #Erdgas aus der neuen Leitung zu übernehmen.

1/7: The most frustrating aspect of the #Kremlin's current escalation vis-a-vis #Ukraine is the rationality of its action and simplicity of the situation: The #EuropeanUnion has the economic means to stop #Putin.
2/7: #Russia's economy and budget are dependent on income from Russian energy exports to the EU. However, the EU will not use this leverage - even though the collective costs of doing so may not be high any more, in view of #LNG, renewables, contingency plans etc.
3/7: When the EU did impose some moderately serious sanctions in 2014, that was not a response to #Russia's aggression against #Ukraine. It was a punishment for Moscow's killing of more than 200 EU citizens on the #MH17 flight sho by a Russian missile over Ukraine, in July 2014.
