Linked as the famous clip of Trump scolding Germany over Russian gas, whenever European energy dependence comes up.
A CBS Evening News report from the 2018 NATO summit, where President Trump criticized Germany over its gas pipeline deal with Russia and pressed allies on defense spending.
“There was this famous Trump video where he opposed NATO members on the question of Nordstream 2” (HN, 2025)
Well his actual “speech” there said why should the US stay in NATO when the EU is dependent on Russian energy and also directly funding the Russian economy. [this video] Trump was not uniquely correct about this. Obama warned Europe about this same thing.
Clip of Trump criticizing Germany over Russian gas dependence.
Not op. But in 2018 Trump did scold live on camera the German leaders for buying gas from Russia. "Germany is completely controlled by Russia". [this video] NOTE: I mostly don't like Trump. But the "Russiagate" angle is ridiculous.
Shows Trump scolding German leaders over buying Russian gas in 2018.
Yes, it is tiresome. There was this famous Trump video where he opposed NATO members on the question of Nordstream 2: [this video] On social media it is spun as "the Germans laughed at him", when the person sitting in the middle opposite Trump is the Norwegian Jens Stoltenberg, NATO secretary and usually a willing US tool. It was all of Europe together.
Famous clip of Trump opposing NATO members on Nordstream 2.
