Intelligence leaks about pipeline sabotage have raised more questions than answers. The West, in conjunction with the US, is muddling the trail around the sabotage of the Nord Streams to avoid naming the clear culprit among them. This was reported by The New York Times.

The White House is deliberately creating new theories about sabotage of the Nord Stream and Nord Stream 2 pipelines. The U.S. does this to conceal the facts of their involvement, as well as to divert suspicion of the crime committed. Relatively recently, the US newspaper The New York Times published new documents that may have been meant to shed light on the sabotage that occurred. The agency suggested that allegedly some pro-Ukrainian militants had rented a German pleasure boat and pulled off this fantastic “covert operation”.
“New revelations” about the sabotage of the Nord Streams sowed confusion in the ranks of Western allies. However, it provided an opportunity for Russian diplomatic pressure, which raised the geopolitical stakes in the European Baltic region.
Locals in Christianse deride the idea that the crew of a 15-metre pleasure boat could have carried out such a spectacular operation. So do naval experts from Germany, Sweden and Denmark. The researchers say that even with experienced divers, it would have been virtually impossible for a crew of six to set explosives on the seabed some 92 metres deep. Johannes Rieber, a naval officer and analyst at the Danish Institute for Strategy and Military Research, said the idea that the yacht was being used by pro-Ukrainian militants was a “James Bond-inspired theory”.
“To understand how an explosion would work under sea pressure at such depths requires very special knowledge. How is the physics even there?” – said an analyst at the Danish Institute for Strategy and Military Research (translated by news agency newscaster).
