Pressure in the Nord Stream 2 undersea gas pipeline dropped from 300 to 7 bars on Sunday night, followed by a similar occurrence in Nord Stream 1’s on Monday afternoon.
The sudden drop of pressure in the Nord Stream 2 pipeline may also have caused a gas leak near the island of Bornholm in the Baltic Sea, a situation being monitored by Danish authorities.
An anonymous source told Tagesspiegel that German authorities “can’t imagine a scenario that isn’t a targeted attack,” and that their assessment has concluded, “Everything speaks against a coincidence.”
The attack had to be deliberate because it would have been carried out by special forces, navy divers or a submarine which were able to reach the bottom of the sea.
>>353643What the fuck could they be afraid of? People noticing the diameter of the holes blown into the pipe could have only been the result of American missiles? People noticing the pipeline wasn't damaged at all?
Do we know if Russia did something to prevent this from happening? Surely, they must have predicted that the pipeline would be at risk for potential sabotage, even without ever hearing of Biden's statement of destorying it.
>>353665Russian can't do anything, the damage is in foreign territorial waters.
>>353666Sure, but maybe they could have gone out with a press statement that they suspect that there would be sabotage to deter it, or something. Just asking if they did anything.
>>353668>a press statement that they suspect that there would be sabotage to deter itNaaaah. All Europe is united against the evil Vlad, even to the point of to destroy their own economies; which it tells us that the European governments are NOT calling the shots.
>>353670Europe sort of just let America take the reins on their politics for decades now. Even if they know that this war is actually America exploiting European men and European resources, they can't back out now.
The pipeline explosion and recently the crimean bridge made sure that Russia, and especially Europe, is cut off from any hope of negotiation. There is almost no path left but to see this war through, which coincidentally is what America wants.
