He has previously lobbied to visit the gold reserves and personally inspect them, but his request was rejected in 2012.

The yanks stole it long ago. Nordstreamed again

Funniest possible outcome. The Germans found out it was stolen, try to get it back, fail, then agree agree for the money to be spent on Ukraine as a compensation. The money is never spent on Ukraine.

Why are they so concerned? It was completely appropriate when the US seized the gold reserves of Afghanistan, Venezuela, and Russia right? The rules based international order had no problems with it, a precedent has been set already!
