White House dismisses 'complete fiction' claim on Nord Stream explosions

The White House dismissed a blog post by a US investigative journalist who claimed the United States was responsible for the explosion of the Nord Stream gas pipelines.

According to a Reuters report, this is utterly false and complete fiction, said Adrienne Watson, a spokesman for the White House National Security Council. The report added that the CIA and State Department spokespeople said the same.

The Pulitzer Prize-winning investigative journalist Seymour Hersh said the pipelines were destroyed using C 4 explosives in a post titled How America Took Out The Nord Stream Pipeline on Substack.

The President saw the pipelines as a vehicle for Vladimir Putin to weaponize natural gas for his political and territorial ambitions, Hersh said in his report.

The whole system revolves around the idea that the majority can be made to believe anything, long as it is repeated loudly and often, according to former U.S. intelligence contractor Edward Snowden. It works. The United States and NATO called the incident an act of sabotage, according to a report by the United States and NATO. Moscow has accused the West of the unexplained explosions, but neither side has provided evidence, the report said.

Russia's foreign ministry said that the United States had questions to answer over its role in explosions on the pipelines.
