Russia has no information that the sabotage at Nord Stream was organized by Western intelligence services, said Nikolai Patrushev, Secretary of the Russian Security Council. At the same time, he noted that Western intelligence agencies had previously been engaged in undermining gas pipelines.

“We do not have such data,” Mr. Patrushev replied to Rossiya-1 when asked if Moscow had data on the involvement of Western intelligence services in sabotage. Comment posted in Telegram channel TV channel employee Pavel Zarubin. “But we have information that they did this before, after some time we will also say this,” said the Secretary of the Security Council of the Russian Federation.
