Russia is thrashing around like drunken dumped crazy ex right now, not much of what it is doing is logical or sensible so you can expect a few more dumb moves

Funny thing is the impact of the pipeline going up on EU energy markets is zero since flow was shut off already and this is just pressurized gas in the lines.
But yea, the number of countries that could precisely destroy these concrete encased deep under sea pipelines is very slim. Russia's probably flailing about trying to imply they would do anything and there is no going back.
