Why would Putin blow up his own pipeline, then spend billions to start repairing it?

The US blew it up so we can sell LNG to Europe. We didn't want the competition. Plus it seals Germany's involvement in our proxy war with Russia. If they had the Russian gas for cheap they would be reluctant to get in on the Ukraine debacle.

then spend billions to start repairing it?

He hasn't done that. Russia hasn't committed anything to repair it, and has instead said the opposite. Also the repair estimate from Russia is $500m, not billions.

The US blew it up so we can sell LNG to Europe.

The pipeline was shut down already with no prospect of turning it back on, so why would that matter?

We didn't want the competition.

There wasn't any already. If your thesis was correct, the US would have blown up the pipeline in February or March, not waited until late September after the pipeline had already been shut down.

Plus it seals Germany's involvement in our proxy war with Russia.

No, it does not. Germany's foreign policy in support of Ukraine was already set in stone and wasn't affected by the pipeline explosions in any way.

If they had the Russian gas for cheap they would be reluctant to get in on the Ukraine debacle.

And yet, and yet, and yet... that's exactly what they did, giving aid and support to Ukraine despite NS1 being in use at the time, and shutting down any prospect of NS2 coming online, back in Feb 22.

Norway and the US worked together to blow up the pipeline. Sonar charges. They laid them on an exercise months earlier than the detonation.

The planning started heavily in Sept 2021. Look up the Seymour Hersh reporting.

Norway / Blackrock are strongly intertwined. NS2 was competition. Our government is completely corporate captured. This is a proxy war under the guise of a humanitarian effort.

If our government were truly benevolent we wouldn't be involved in so many current conflicts. Syria, Yemen, Somalia, Venezuela, rebel funding in Ethiopia. It's all business at our expense.

Putin did not blow up his own pipeline. That was a potential cash cow for Russia.

We broke the Minsk Accords. Now we are gaslighting on a global stage. Former head of Germany, Merkel admitted it.
