>Adam Tooze's notes on the Russo-Ukrainian situation.
It is interesting that he almost ignores NS2 and gas question, only mentioning it few times. But NS2 is a big thing, because gas export not only provides Russia stable income for years, but also gives additional political influence (over Ukraine too). Biden's administration already gave up on sanctions, but there is internal EU resistance to pipeline. Tensions may force EU countries into submission while US is not in best shape and already has softer stance on this than in Trump time (who had pretty hardline stance on Russia contrary to his public image).
