Jeffrey Sachs says sabotage of Nord Stream was a US action

04.10.2022

The destruction of the Nord Stream pipelines has been the subject of headlines over the last week, unless you have been living in a cave. The pipelines that bring natural gas from Russia to Europe via the Baltic Sea have been hit by an unknown state actor on September 28 and have escaped millions of metric tons of methane into the ocean. The seismologists of Denmark and Sweden said they recorded powerful underwater explosions after the leaks.

The question everyone is asking is: Did the United States sabotage the Nord Stream pipelines? Jeffrey Sachs is a professor at Columbia University and a renowned economist. Professor Jeffrey said in an interview with Bloomberg yesterday that he said that the sabotage of the Nord Stream 1 and 2 gas pipelines was a US action. Arousing the amazement of journalists before he was interrupted by one of the interviewers. He later explains the reason behind his claim: First, there is radar evidence that US military helicopters, normally based in Gdansk Pologne, flew over the area. He later quoted President Joe Biden's statement at the beginning of the year to end, one way or another, Nord Stream in the event of Russian intervention in Ukraine, and then the remarks of Secretary of State Anthony Blinken at a Sept. 30 press conference. Jeffrey Sachs, professor at Columbia University New York and renowned economist, said that the United States could be behind the sabotage of the Nord Stream 1 and 2 gas pipelines, which caused the amazement of journalists when they were interviewed on Bloomberg TV on October 3 about the escalation of international tensions.

I think it is an action by the United States, perhaps of the United States and Poland that launched the economist about the damage caused by the gas pipelines, before being interrupted by one of the interviewers, who asked him what evidence he relied on to support his claim.

The blast came after Denmark's prime minister claimed that the Nord Stream 1 and 2 pipeline leaks may have been caused by sabotage. There is no doubt that these explosions were caused by these, said Bjorn Lund, a seismologist at Sweden's National Seismology Centre.

There are two leaks on Nord Stream 1 - one in the Swedish economic zone and one in the Danish economic zone. A Swedish Maritime Administration SMA spokeswoman told Reuters that they are very close to each other. Denmark's prime minister is not alone in blaming the explosions on sabotage. Poland s premier minister blamed sabotage for the leaks, but he didn't cite any evidence.

The attack on the pipelines has led many to warn about the consequences and response from Russia if it turns out the explosion was caused by a state-sponsored attack.
