[Freddie] So okay, this is a bit where I have to ask the central
18:03
question, which is, why? I mean, it's possible to establish the
18:09
case in terms of why it's in America's strategic interest for the pipeline, not to be active. But by this stage, Germany has
18:17
already failed to give it authorization. They're not using the pipeline. Sholtz is standing right next to him. What's the
18:24
requirement to actually go through this elaborate and politically highly risky operation to actually blow it up
18:31
when Germany has already stopped it. It's not it's not being used? And besides, it's actually a partially German-owned piece
18:39
of infrastructure. This is owned 51% by Gazprom, the Russian company, but 49% by a consortium of European energy companies.
18:47
Why do they need to blow it up?

[Jeffrey Sachs] Oh, I couldn't agree with you more. The whole thing is madcap.
18:54
The whole thing is arrogance. They think they can get away with it. Why not? Let's put it to an end once and for all.
19:02
Maybe German industry is going to demand that it gets started again, who knows? But it's always interesting to try to
19:09
think like the CIA or to try to think like the US covert operations. I have to tell you, there are dozens of these
19:16
operations. So you have to ask, by the way, and I asked that question each time because they rarely work out and this one's
19:26
not going to work out too well either. This is now understood. More and more people are coming to understand what this is all
19:34
about and it a little nuts.
