Former US President Donald Trump said that the current leadership of the country is showing weakness in front of Russia, China and Iran, reports TASS.
“Our leaders bow down to Russia, Iran and communist China in weakness,” Trump said at a rally in Florida.
The former head of the White House recalled that the current US President Joe Biden canceled the construction of the American Keystone XL pipeline, but did not interfere with the construction of the Nord Stream 2 pipeline.
“And they say Trump hasn’t been tough enough on Russia. Truth? I stopped their pipeline. The pipeline was the most important source of income for Russia. And I stopped building it. And this guy immediately gave him the green light”, said the ex-president of the United States.
Nord Stream-2 envisages the construction of two strings of a gas pipeline with a total capacity of 55 billion cubic meters of gas per year from the Russian coast through the Baltic Sea to Germany. Washington actively opposed the completion of the project, as it wants to supply its own liquefied gas to Europe.
