Show Notes

The long struggle over the Russian-led Nord Stream 2 pipeline appears to be entering its endgame. Is this controversial and highly politicized energy project a done deal? Or can the pipeline, which many fear will lead to corruption, cronyism, and deeper European dependence on Russian energy, still be stopped? And if it can't, what can be done in the long term to mitigate the damage? On The Power Vertical Podcast this week, host Brian Whitmore speaks with Dr. Benjamin L. Schmitt, a Postdoctoral Research Fellow at Harvard University and former European Energy Security Advisor at the U.S. State Department.
