Poland’s Foreign Minister says that if we go with what is presented in the media, the US knew about the Nord Stream attacks but did nothing to prevent them.
The United States knew in advance about the impending attacks on the Nord Stream pipeline but did not step in to prevent them, Polish Foreign Minister Radoslaw Sikorski revealed today.
In September 2022, Sikorski was not yet foreign minister but was a member of the European Parliament. Back then, he insinuated that Washington was complicit in the attack on the Nord Stream gas pipeline.
Sikorski tweeted a photo from the scene of the accident at the time and signed it with “Thank you, USA.” He then later brought to mind US President Joe Biden’s threat to demolish the Nord Stream 2 gas pipeline. However, the tweet was deleted just a few hours after it was posted.
Speaking with Polish newspaper Rzeczpospolita, he said “If we believe media, it [the attack] was carried out by someone who was interested in it. And the US had preliminary information about this and did not interfere with this move.”
However, this time, Sikorski did not name those responsible for the accident.
The US planted explosives that destroyed Nord Stream, claims Seymour Hersh
US investigative journalist and Pulitzer award winner Seymour Hersh said on February 8 2023 that US Navy divers planted explosives to destroy the Nord Stream pipelines in 2022.
“Last June, the Navy divers, operating under the cover of a widely publicized mid-summer NATO exercise known as BALTOPS 22, planted the remotely triggered explosives that, three months later, destroyed three of the four Nord Stream pipelines, according to a source with direct knowledge of the operational planning,” Hersh wrote in his Substack newsletter.
The White House responded and dismissed the claims as “false and complete fiction.”
Flightradar24 data showed in late September 2022 that US military helicopters habitually and on numerous occasions circled for hours over the site of the Nord Stream pipeline incident near Bornholm Island.
A US Navy Sikorsky MH-60R Seahawk helicopter spent hours loitering over the location of the damaged natural gas pipelines in the Baltic Sea near Bornholm for several days in a row, September 1, 2, and 3, of 2022 in particular.
