That is a half truth. A turbine was broken, repaired in Canada, which required a lot of bureaucracy. Then the turbine was shipped to Germany. Then the Russians started their own bureaucracy and came up with excuses why the turbine could not be installed.

During that time Nord Stream was blown up.

The point is moot, since Putin has offered multiple times to open the remaining intact pipe:

And the broken pipes can be repaired, as was determined in the LLoyds lawsuit recently.

I'm not saying that reopening would be reliable, but it would be one diversification away from US and Qatar dependencies. The US just cut the EU off from Qatar gas.
