Puterea din Statele Unite se va schimba abia anul viitor, dar este deja clar: Joe Biden va fi mai dur cu Rusia decât predecesorul său. Cu toate acestea, primii care vor suferi din cauza acestui lucru vor fi investitorii americani - mari deținători de valori mobiliare. Însă este posibil ca toate acestea să rămână doar vorbe, dar de fapt noul președinte american va negocia cu Rusia și își va retrage obiecțiile față de proiect. După cum asigură fostul senator al statului american Virginia Richard Black, Biden va prefera să negocieze cu Moscova finalizarea construcției „fără mult zgomot”. În cele din urmă, Biden va continua să facă presiuni asupra OPEC.
