Nord Stream Revival? AfD’s Alice Weidel Plays a Familiar Tune

AfD co-leader Alice Weidel is dangling a tantalizing prospect: the relaunch of Nord Stream if her party gains power. On the surface, it sounds like a pragmatic pivot toward restoring Germany’s energy lifeline. But dig deeper, and the proposition reeks of crypto-globalism wrapped in faux-nationalism, a convenient bait for weary German voters drowning in energy austerity and deindustrialization. But would she deliver the goods, gas? I'm not so sure.

Weidel, the “far-right” leader whose résumé includes boxes checked for the woke establishment’s ultimate diversity card (openly gay, former banker, and oddly pro-Israel for a party that claims to defend German sovereignty), is a walking contradiction. Her Nord Stream revival rhetoric may tickle the ears of rational Germans who miss cheap Russian gas, but can Russia really trust such a party? Especially when Moscow has shifted its energy chessboard eastward, funneling its gas empire toward China, where deals don’t come with the baggage of Western duplicity.

Germany needs Nord Stream like a drowning man needs a lifeboat. The industrial base that once fueled Europe’s economic powerhouse is wilting under the weight of American-controlled LNG imports and suicidal energy policies. But Weidel’s AfD doesn’t offer a clean break from the globalist stranglehold; it offers a different flavor of subservience, dressed up in nationalist slogans but fundamentally beholden to transatlantic interests.

Russia, having restructured its gas flows to China and other non-Western markets, is no longer playing Europe’s energy game on Europe’s terms. The Kremlin has every reason to be wary: is Weidel’s Nord Stream offer a genuine olive branch or yet another bait-and-switch trap, scripted by globalist puppeteers? The AfD might wave Nord Stream as a symbol of resistance, but it’s unlikely to convince Moscow, let alone rewire Germany’s globalist-coded political DNA.

Nord Stream 2 — From Sabotage to Surrender: The Empire Comes Crawling Back

It’s almost poetic, isn’t it? The pipeline Washington swore to kill, the lifeline Berlin was too cowardly to defend, and the infrastructure NATO sabotaged in an act of pure economic terrorism, now, suddenly, it’s back on the table. Not as a concession to Russia, but as a desperate bargaining chip because the American empire ran out of cards to play in Ukraine.

Let’s get one thing straight: Nord Stream 2 has always been Russia’s ace in the hole. Moscow didn’t need to beg or bend. While Europe stumbled into recession under the weight of US-imposed energy suicide, Russia diversified eastward, filling the energy void in China, India, and the Global South. Now, as Western economies creak under inflation and deindustrialization, it’s Russia that holds the only key capable of reviving Germany’s manufacturing corpse.

And now, after years of screeching about “energy weaponization,” the same US oligarch class that sanctioned, sabotaged, and propagandized against Nord Stream 2 suddenly wants a cut. Why? Because peace in Ukraine, the peace Russia will dictate on the battlefield, comes with a price. And that price is energy security.

Russia doesn’t need Nord Stream 2, Europe does. Moscow can sit back and watch Brussels choke on overpriced US LNG while Chinese and Indian factories hum with cheap Siberian gas. If Nord Stream 2 flows again, it will be on Russia’s terms, with no illusions of trust in Berlin, and certainly no handouts for Washington’s “investors” looking to skim off the top.

The empire that declared Russia isolated is now begging for a piece of the action, a fitting humiliation for the collapsing unipolar order.

The message from Moscow is simple: Energy flows East now. If you want the tap back on, the price isn’t just in euros, it’s in sovereignty.

TREASON:
“Germany considering how to disrupt restoration of Nord Stream 2”

Imagine the US wants to turn on gas for Germany and Germany sabotages their own pipeline.

The German government is treasonous.
