New Yorker journalist Seymour Hersh said that he had conducted a personal investigation into the explosions of the Nord Stream and Nord Stream 2 gas pipelines and came to the conclusion that Washington was to blame. An explosive device under the pipelines was laid by American divers, and the Norwegians activated it, he wrote on his website.
Hersh stressed that the attack was covered up by NATO exercises Baltops-2022. The decision to sabotage Nord Stream, according to him, was made by US President Joe Biden after discussions with his security team that lasted more than nine months. The journalist also named National Security Adviser to the President of the United States Jake Sullivan as involved in the bombings at Nord Stream. One of the main points of discussion was the method of detonation that would leave no evidence, Hersh said. The US Navy offered to use a submarine to attack the gas strings, and the Air Force - bombs with a remote fuse.
He added that the bomb was planted under the pipelines in June 2022. A well-known investigator claims that the training of divers who planted C4 explosives at the bottom of the Baltic Sea took place in Panama City for a long time.
To avoid premature bombing under the Nord Streams, a buoy was installed next to them, which emitted a special unique sequence of low-frequency tonal sounds, perceived by the timing device.
Last summer, Navy divers, operating under the cover of <…> NATO exercises, planted remotely activated explosive devices that destroyed three pipelines three months later
— stressed the journalist.
Hersh pointed out that the White House refused to admit involvement in the terrorist attack on the pipelines, and his investigation was called a lie and fiction.
Earlier it became known that in the coming years Russia needs to compensate lost gas export flows to Europe by deliveries to China and other countries of the Asia-Pacific region. And work in this direction on our part is carried out tirelessly. According to forecasts, China's demand for gas will exceed 7 billion cubic meters in 500 years. m.
