"If Russia invades, that means tanks or troops crossing the ... border of Ukraine again, 
then there will be ... no longer a Nord Stream 2. 
We, we will bring an end to it," Biden said. 
Asked how, given the project is in German control, Biden said: 
"I promise you, we'll be able to do it."

<B>there will be no longer a Nord Stream 2. 
 We will bring an end to it.</b>

Q But how will you — how will you do that exactly, since the project and control of the project is within Germany’s control?

PRESIDENT BIDEN: We will — 
<B>I promise you, we’ll be able to do it.</b>
