The head of the Kremlin is confident that the explosions on gas pipelines in the Baltic Sea were arranged by American intelligence services.
Russian President Vladimir Putin is convinced that US intelligence agencies are behind the explosions at the Nord Stream gas pipelines. He said this on the air of Russia-24 TV channel.
Putin referred to the publication of the American journalist Seymour Hersh, who previously stated that the explosions on the pipelines were allegedly carried out on the orders of US President Joe Biden.
“An American journalist who has now become well-known in the world conducted such an investigation and came to the conclusion that this explosion of gas pipelines was arranged by the US special services. I completely agree with those such a conclusion,” Putin said in an interview.
Answering the question of whether the truth will be known about what really happened to the gas pipelines, and whether the incident will really be investigated, he said: “I think it will be difficult to achieve. But one day, probably, it will be revealed that and how it was done.
The head of the Kremlin also said that Russia, after inquiries to the UN related to the discovery of a beacon at the junction of the Nord Stream pipes, received an answer that this item was not dangerous, and Moscow declined participation in the investigation.
Recall that the Danish Energy Agency invited Nord Stream 2 AG to help raise an unknown object found near the SP-2 gas pipeline under the Baltic Sea. According to the latest data, the pipeline operator has already given such permission.
Russia has long insisted that it be included in the investigation of gas pipeline explosions. But in Denmark they say that such permission will not be given.
On February 8, the American investigative journalist Seymour Hersh, in his article, said that explosive devices under Russian gas pipelines were planted in June 2022 under the cover of exercises by US divers Navy with the support of Norwegian specialists. The decision to perform the operation was allegedly made by US President Joe Biden. However, the White House categorically denies this.
