The Biden administration has abruptly withdrawn American support for the Eastern Mediterranean (EastMed) pipeline, a project aimed at shipping natural gas from Israel to European markets. The White House said the project was antithetical to its “climate goals”.
In reaching its decision, which effectively kills EastMed, the White House appears to have caved to pressure from Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, who has vociferously opposed the underwater pipeline because it would bypass Turkey.
Biden’s decision — reportedly coordinated with Turkey but reached without consulting Israel, Greece or Cyprus, the main countries involved in the project — undercuts three of the strongest American allies in the Mediterranean region.
The reversal on the EastMed pipeline becomes only more hypocritical and offensive given the fact that President Biden continues to clear the path towards completion of the [Russian] Nord Stream 2 pipeline.

That’s what you get with a traitor in the White House. He’s just doing his job, betraying his country and its allies, too.
People keep saying his policies are “failing”.
They are not failing, they are succeeding, because these disasters they are creating are exactly what they want.

Yes! Exactly! The “Biden” junta is succeeding. To wreck the American economy, to encourage enemies of America, to subjugate the American people - those are their policies, that’s their agenda. They are motivated by lust for power and hatred of America. Nothing else.
