Biden to waive sanctions on company in charge of Russian Nord Stream 2 pipeline into Germany
The State Department is reportedly set to waive sanctions meant to stop the construction of the Russian Nord Stream 2 pipeline into Germany, underscoring the importance the Biden administration places on its relationship with Germany and the difficulties of being tougher on Russia.
The pipeline would allow fuel from Russia to bypass Ukraine for the first time and reach directly to Germany, thereby advancing Russia's goal of undermining and isolating Ukraine from Western Europe.
