And I'll bet Germany knew as well. Remember that clip of Biden saying Nordstream is not going to happen, with Scholz standing RIGHT NEXT TO HIM? Nordstream needed to go, and go it did. We could have just buried that topic and never brought it up again. But then some DA supersleuth had to go sleuthing... 🙄 Hey, at least it proves that Germany's judiciary is somewhat independent from the executive, after all.
