The Europeans seem to have found a way to put pressure on Trump, who is not rich in oil and salt. What method? The truth about the Nord Stream pipeline explosion.
(The Nord Stream pipeline was bombed in 2022)
According to Xinhuanet, not long ago, a Ukraine man named Sergi was arrested in Italy. At the same time, the German Federal Prosecutor's Office issued a notice that Italian police arrested the man in response to a European wanted warrant issued by the investigating judge of the German Federal Supreme Court. So who is this person? According to investigations by German prosecutors, Serge is believed to be one of the suspects in the 2022 North Stream Pipeline bombing.
There is no need to say much about how important the Nord Stream Pipeline is. This is a natural gas pipeline jointly invested by Russia and Europe. It starts from the coast of Russia, passes through the seabed of the Baltic Sea, and reaches Germany, with a total length of more than 1200 kilometers. Among them, the investment in Line 1 is 14.8 billion euros, and the investment in Line 2 is 9.5 billion euros, totaling more than 24 billion euros.
Before the outbreak of the Russia-Ukraine conflict in 2021, approximately 60 billion cubic meters of natural gas were transported to Germany and other European countries through Line 1 of the Nord Stream Pipeline. Line 2 could transport 55 billion cubic meters to the EU every year, totaling nearly 120 billion cubic meters., a proper energy channel. The Nord Stream Pipeline was bombed, causing heavy losses to European countries, especially Germany. The factory of Germany's BASF Chemical Company was forced to shut down for three months, losing billions of euros.

The losses of the Russians were equally severe, so much money invested, that not only the blood was lost, but hundreds of billions of cubic meters of natural gas exports were also reduced to zero.
The Ukrainians have great suspicions about who did this, but the question is why sooner or later, at this time, the suspect was suddenly arrested? In fact, this man named Sergey has been in Italy for almost two years, and both Germany and Italy have already mastered the man's trajectory.
Use this to warn a country to be honest, otherwise use the suspect’s mouth to make the truth of the incident known to the world. If Sergey acknowledged that the North Stream pipeline was bombed by this country, then the country would be extremely passive.
Sergey was arrested in Italy.
What is the current policy attitude of the German government? Aid and support Ukraine, and Germany has suffered such heavy losses on the Nord Stream Pipeline. If it was done by the Ukrainians, once this criminal record is confirmed, what reason does Germany have to continue to assist Ukraine? If Germany really doesn't want to help and support Ukraine, why have it left this suspect unarrested for the past two years or so? It has to continue to support Ukraine now at this critical moment.
Therefore, behind this incident, Germany and EU countries are actually using this to warn another country-the United States.
Because even if this incident was carried out by this Ukrainian Sergei, it does not mean that it was done by the Ukrainian government or the military. And more importantly, even with the background of the Ukrainian government, Ukrainian agents are not capable of executing accurate explosions in the Baltic Sea, thousands of kilometers away, at the depth of more than 100 meters of the ocean.
In fact, various parties, including famous American investigative journalists, have conducted a large number of investigations, pointing the black hand behind the bombing of the Nord Stream Pipeline to the CIA. The whole world knows this, but there is no ironclad evidence. If the suspect arrested this time is finally identified as instructed, organized and implemented by the U.S. government and the CIA, then the U.S. government will be passive.
Speaking of which, the crux of the problem came, was the German government going to tear its face with the US government? It had been almost three years since the Nord Stream pipeline was bombed, and the truth of the matter had not been revealed before. Why was it doing this now? To be precise, it was preparing to do so. It was because the German government was sending a signal or warning to the US government, hoping that the US government would continue to support and assist Ukraine.
At present, Trump is obviously partial to Russia on the Russia-Ukraine issue, exerting various pressures on Ukraine, and even threatening to completely stop assisting Ukraine. European countries such as Germany strongly demand continued assistance and support for Ukraine and resolutely oppose Trump's abandonment of Ukraine. This can be seen from the recent meeting between the heads of state of the United States, Russia and Alaska, as well as the talks between the United States, Europe and Ukraine at the White House on August 18.
(The outside world believes that the CIA is the culprit behind the North Stream pipeline bombing.)
So, at this critical moment, Europeans must put pressure on Trump, and the bombing of the Nord Stream pipeline is a good option. Although this happened when Biden was president, it is still the behavior of the US government. If the truth is revealed, it will damage the image and credibility of the entire United States, and there will be huge compensation. As the current president of the United States, Trump must weigh this matter carefully. If Trump is unwilling to take this risk, he will have to turn more to the side of the European position on Ukraine.
The Nord Stream pipeline is well known to everyone, but when the truth is completely exposed and there is hard evidence, it is another matter. This is a strategic game. The Europeans are using it to show Trump their leverage.
