Assessing the Potential for a Joint Attack on Russia’s Nordstream by the US and UK

0

The Russian Security Council has confirmed that only America and Britain are capable of attacking Nord Stream in connection with the bombing of the Nord Stream 1 and Nord Stream 2 pipelines last September off the Danish island of Bornholm.

And Secretary of the Russian Security Council Nikolai Patrushev explained that in order to attack the Nord Stream gas pipelines, special forces are needed, which are available primarily in Washington and London.

He also stated in an interview with the Argomenty i Fakty newspaper that his country insists on an objective investigation of the explosion incident, noting that unilateral clarifications do not clarify anything.

He added that Russia still does not know exactly who was behind the explosion, according to the Russian TASS news agency.

Earlier this month, US State Department spokesman Ned Price dismissed reports that his government was in any way involved in the Nord Stream gas pipeline explosions as absurd, but Washington has not dismissed any reports that those involved in the attack have been found.

deliberate attack

It is noteworthy that Sweden and Denmark, in whose exclusive economic zones the explosions occurred, had previously concluded, based on the results of their investigations, that the pipelines had been deliberately blown up, but did not identify those responsible after four large leaks. were detected last September in the Nord Stream 1 and 2 pipelines off the Danish island of Bornholm, two in Swedish economic waters and two more in Danish waters.

Since the start of the conflict in Ukraine, two gas pipelines linking Russia with Germany have been at the center of geopolitical tensions after Moscow’s decision to cut off gas supplies to Europe in response to Western sanctions imposed on it due to its military operation on the territory of its western neighbor on February 24.
