A tanker transporting 170,000 tons of American LNG to Germany, has got stuck in ice.

The Germans sent an ice breaker to free it, but that too got stuck and broke down.

The only icebreakers powerful enough to free them both, are Russia’s nuclear powered icebreakers, but they are under German sanctions.

Still, spring is only a couple of months away; they’ll just have to be patient and utilize the time learning how to play chess; who knows, they possibly could beat the Russians at that.
