Chinese analyst told who could be behind the sabotage at Nord Stream

A well-known journalist, deputy editor-in-chief of Xinhua’s Global magazine, Liu Hong, said that the incidents on the Nord Stream 1 and Nord Stream 2 pipelines are probably sabotage. Various countries could stand behind them, in particular, Poland and the USA.

Liu Hong compiled a review and posted it on “Nu Tanqin’s” WeChat account. In his opinion, you can immediately cross out Germany. This country, as the expert pointed out, “loses the most from the incident.” She is interested in gas supplies from Russia even after the end of the conflict in Ukraine.

In addition, he does not suspect Denmark of this, despite the fact that the gas leak occurred near its territory.

But Poland, for example, can really be involved in what happened. According to a Chinese expert, the site of the explosion was not far from this country. In addition, Poland is the most anti-Russian country in Eastern Europe and the most supportive of Ukraine. In addition, incidents on gas pipelines occurred against the backdrop of the opening of the Baltic Pipeline in Poland.

The US may also be connected to what happened. Liu Hong recalled how former Polish Foreign Minister Radosław Sikorski wrote on social media: “Thank you, USA.” This happened immediately after the incident.

Speaking about the possible participation of Russia itself, the expert pointed out that if Moscow wanted to use pipelines as a tool to increase pressure on European countries, it could simply cut off supplies.

Meanwhile, the head of the European Commission, Ursula von der Leyen, has already threatened a response to the “deliberate disruption” of European energy infrastructure. This happened after the sabotage that occurred on the Nord Streams.

Also, the head of the European Commission said that it is necessary to conduct an investigation into what happened, as well as to get “full clarity about the events and causes.”
