Sergey Naryshkin, the head of Russia’s Foreign Intelligence Service, has alleged that American and British saboteurs were responsible for the explosions that severely damaged the Nord Stream 1 and 2 pipelines.
These crucial energy conduits, designed to transport Russian gas to Germany and other Western European nations, were damaged by blasts in the Baltic Sea in September 2022.
“It has long been known that the West uses international terrorism as a tool to achieve its geopolitical goals. However, the Western intelligence agencies themselves also do not hesitate to resort to terrorist methods in fighting their opponents,” Naryshkin stated during a meeting with security and intelligence officials from former Soviet republics on Tuesday.
He indicated that the Nord Stream sabotage exemplifies such tactics. “The SVR possesses information about a direct involvement of professional saboteurs from the Anglo-American special services in this terrorist attack,” he asserted.
Naryshkin emphasized that the Nord Stream project was a collaborative effort between Russian and European companies aimed at ensuring “an uninterrupted supply of affordable Russian gas to Europe.” He added, “Meaning that Russia built it together with constructively minded Europeans, and the Anglo-Americans blew it up.”
The head of the SVR argued that “destroying Nord Stream was an obsession not only of the Democratic, but also of the Republican administration in the US.”
