ally ukraine, if finished, not only boosts russia's gas sales to europe, but scores a strategic victory for putin. >> it is definitely going to be perceived not just as successful completion of a commercial project, but also as a political victory for the russian federation. >> ukraine is really the prize, both for the europeans and the russians. and so the gas issue would undoubtedly shift that balance back towards moscow. >> president joe biden's stake is part commercial. the u.s. would like to sell its shale gas to europe, but mostly it's strategic. >> president biden has made it clear that it's a bad deal because it divides europe, it exposes ukraine to russia manipulation. >> more than that, it could block a key biden foreign policy plan, a strong transatlantic alliance. >> it is become ago litmus test as to whether the biden administration can rebuild an effective transatlantic relationship. >> german chancellor angela merkel, who is key to the success of strong relations opposes the sanctions and wants the pipeline completed. >> they're trying to sxexplore deal that would allow t

germany under the baltic sea and could be used to bypass existing pipelines which take gas through ukraine which would cost kiev valuable transit fees the pipeline is seen by some politicians as the only way for germany to get the energy it needs while facilitating the move away from nuclear and coal. we are the only highly industrialized country which at the same time wants to get rid of nuclear energy in kovel those who use a huge amount of nuclear energy such as micron have an easier task to replace fossil fuels this is a bold move from the greens it puts at risk a potential coalition between themselves and the conservative union which had been widely talked up ahead of september's fort christian democratic union leader arm english remains on track to the angle of merkel successor chancellor that's despite strong gains by the greens on the corruption scandal over m.p.'s earning extra money through lobbying taking its toll on his party in polling he is regarded as an economic pragmatist when it comes to the pipeline and the gas it would provide the conservatives are the only ones willing

the question is does this help us to get russia to do what we want in a ukraine or in georgia or the middle east. does it get mr. navalny out of prison sooner? does it get it yet another nuclear arms agreement that would perhaps capture a greater set of weapons? i'm not so sure. again, it is a question of tactics. and i'm simply raising the question that i'm unpersuaded this is the way to go. it reminds me about woodrow wilsons about covenants at the time of world war i and afterwards. it didn't work so well. the diplomacy is done in a smoke filled room and then when you have the compromise and the agreements then you bring it into the public view. >> stay with us. while the white house is celebrating america's vaccine rollout, europes han been rather poorly executed. it is also created an opportunity for the far right and for populism there. we'll dig into exactly what is going on. still a father. but now a friend. still an electric car. just more electrifying. still a night out. but everything fits in. still hard work. just a little easier. still a legend. just more legendary. chev

russia invaded ukraine seven years ago and took part of ukraine for itself. russia and russian-backed forces have continued ever since to menace the whole eastern swath of that country. the biden administration now sending ukraine money and weapons to defend themselves. the sizable package of weaponry they're sending includes two of the u.s. navy's mark 6 weaponized patrol boats and counterartillery radars and satellite imagery capability and military medical equipment. and here's a nice change. the aid comes with no springs attached. huh. weird, right? to get this help from our government, ukraine's president doesn't have to announce some bogus investigation into a single one of joe biden's potential 2024 republican presidential opponents. amazing, right? it's weird. >>> also in the night-and-day news department today, the biden administration plans to impose sanctions on russia this week, possibly as early as tomorrow, in response to the poisoning and imprisonment of russian opposition leader alexei navalny. the trump administration, of course, took no acti

the election after talking about the 2020 election it doesn't take a lot to do that if you look at ukraine gate you look at the hunter biden story that was spiked you look at the way the media silicon valley the intelligence community all banding together to really hold coordinate this narrative to keep this narrative in place that so essential for the democrats and for joe biden himself being directly involved in what's arguably a lot of corruption in the ukraine that's that's historic record by now even on camera he said so much himself so. this is just more damage control in a sense in the really just putting off the inevitable the inevitable is that they're going to have to come to terms of the fact that this is a call they don't have anything to go forward with in terms of diplomacy or really original thinking and i'm afraid this is a prelude to possibly more aggressive operations in the ukraine for instance the way things are going in that country just in regard to the. gave up the interest to get your thoughts on this it didn't saying this was something that joe biden panned to say
