Via Business Insider; Trump's attacks on Germany focused on two major issues: defense spending and spending on energy imports from Russia.Germany being totally controlled by Russia because they're getting between 60 to 70% of their energy from Russia and building the Nord Stream 2, a new pipeline from the Baltic Sea to Europe that is likely to boost Russia's natural-gas exports. Given Germany's commitment to reducing the use of coal and nuclear energy, the pipeline is seen as a key source of new energy in the coming years. The growing consumption of Russian oil and gas comes at the same time Germany and its allies are confronting Russia over numerous issues, including Russia's invasion of Crimea and election interference around the world. the article continues; According AG Energiebilanzen, Germany's energy mix coming from Russian oil and gas, a high percentage but certainly short of the 60% to 70% that Trump suggested. Germany has also helped lead the sanctions on Russia in the wake of the invasion of Crimea. wait until the Nord Stream 2 is fully functional. |

| #2 Its about time. I have never before heard of a government providing or allowing fuel shipment to those attacking its civilians. The message such shipments gave to Israel's adversaries was that the Israeli government is afraid of them. |
