Polyansky: Russia will publish correspondence with Germany, Denmark and Sweden on Nord Stream

Russia will soon publish and circulate among the members of the UN Security Council correspondence with Germany, Denmark and Sweden on the investigation of explosions on the two gas pipelines Nord Stream and Nord Stream 2. About it declared Deputy Ambassador of Russia to the UN Dmitry Polyansky in an interview with Jackson Hinkle.

“They deny any access to information, deny any participation, although we are an interested party. We must in it [в расследовании] participate. But they just write letters to us, they say: “We do what we do, and you mind your own business.” <...> To be transparent, we will soon publish this correspondence and circulate it among the members of the UN Security Council,” he said (cit. according to TASS).

According to Polyansky, a vote on a resolution on the need for an international investigation of sabotage should take place at the end of March. However, now many member countries of the UN Security Council consider such an investigation unnecessary, he added.

The Nord Stream incident occurred on the night of September 26, 2022. Pressure dropped in both pipelines. Two subsequently discovered leaks were in the Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) of Sweden, and two more were in the Danish EEZ. Initially, Germany, Sweden and Denmark agreed to conduct a joint investigation, but this idea was later abandoned. In October 2022, Sweden announced the completion of the investigation, stating “increasing suspicions of gross sabotage”, but those responsible for what happened were not named.

February 8 American journalist Seymour Hersh published investigation of the Nord Stream incident, in which he accused the United States and Norway of being involved in the bombing. The White House and the European Commission called this information unreliable. In the Kremlin declared about the unwillingness of the West to transparently investigate the Nord Stream case.
