Don’t leave out Poland, they opened their pipeline to Norway on the day of or day after the explosions. Norway is sitting in the seat concerning energy that Germany had when the energy came from Russia. Poland also just demanded war reparations from Germany for WW2 and the Germans told them to “pounden ze sand”.
I dont see why Russia would blow up their own pipeline in THAT location when they can just shut off gas. If they would have, for example, blown up their "other" pipelines in Ukraine, maybe it would be more plausible. However, they have gone out of their way to not blow their pipelines in the warzone.
Lots of reasons for us to though. The other thing you have to consider is who has the capability? A very sturdy pipeline 300' beneath the surface and no one saw a thing? C'mon man
seems like a bit of an aggro move to freeze elderly rural germans to death for some nebulous point i dont even understand
The left don't care about old people in any country if they aren't rich and part of the cabal. This was a globalist move. Remember, Vlad is one of the few still pushing back.
With regards to this pipeline, it hurts Russia, that is now 2 lines they cannot sell through. So in a way, if you want to remove Russia further from Europe, there is that idea that this, long term, is better than the short term freezing of Germany. No proof though. Just open thought. Basically it was an open IV to Europe and “someone” just nipped that in the bud.
While it’s possible the US did this, I don’t think so. I doubt we would have used such a ham fisted, 100kg of TNT, approach. We know there are acoustic arrays in the Baltic and such explosions could have been located within 10 - 15 meters, probably closer. And I expect the technical means to carry out this op had to be within the Baltic. There is a LOT of undersea capability in the Baltic. I can not imagine this would have/could have been a mult-country or NATO operation due to operational security considerations.
If the US did it with intention of denying it, certainly the smart thing to do is make it seem like a more “non” technical adventure.
