Putin did not directly name the countries that organized the bombing of Nord Streams
Blowing up the Nord Stream gas pipelines is an act of international or state terrorism.
Russian President Vladimir Putin told reporters about this today, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
“Because individuals, individuals, individuals are not able to commit such terrorist attacks on their own, without the support of government agencies. It is clear that this was done with the support of states,” Putin said.
He believes that gas pipelines were undermined by states interested in transit to Europe passing through Ukraine.
“As they usually say in such cases: look who is interested. Who is interested in the fact that the Russian gas supply line to the European market passes only through Ukraine, who is interested in Ukraine receiving money? The “aggressor” is Russia, but they receive money from us for transit, we pay them, despite the fact that they call us “aggressors”, although they themselves are aggressors in relation to Donbass. We counteract aggression, not the other way around. They take money and nothing. Money doesn't smell.
Who is interested in the supply of Russian gas to Europe only through Ukraine? That's what blew it up. Nobody is investigating,” Putin said.
Political scientist Andrei Suzdaltsev, commenting on the president’s speech, clarifies:
“Actually, Warsaw made the biggest scandal in the world media over the construction of the Nord Stream gas pipelines (I and II), but the destruction of Russian gas pipelines is most profitable for Washington.”
