Germany just offered to invest $1.2 billion in LNG terminals if US allows them to continue with Nordstream 2.

Thanks for the link, that's an interesting read.

The media is trying its darnedest to paint China as the biggest bully, except it doesn't even compare to US in real world.

So we’re ignoring the fact that Germany basically backstabbed Ukraine with that deal on purpose? Germany did not want to get involved into the Russia / Ukraine conflict because of Russia’s gas dependence, but they knew that Ukraine could force them to take a stance because of their pipeline. So Germany screwed them over and started a pipeline directly with Russia. Germany here is just as much of a scumbag as the US.

Really? South China Sea? Tibet? Or even an island dispute with Japan?

It's way worse than any worst business deal.
