Western nations have said leaks in two Russian gas pipelines, Nord Stream 1 and 2, are likely the result of sabotage. Here's what you need to know.

Western nations have said leaks in two Russian gas pipelines, Nord Stream 1 and 2, are likely the result of sabotage. On Monday, leaks were discovered in the pipelines, prompting investigations by European authorities that determined powerful underwater explosions had occurred just before the pipelines burst in several places.

And following Russia’s invasion of Ukraine this year, Germany pulled the plug on the pipeline as it was on the cusp of becoming operational. Why were the pipelines so controversial? European reliance on Russian energy has long been a concern for many in the West. The construction of Nord Stream 2 divided politicians and analysts for years, and became beset by delays, previous US sanctions and opposition over its impact on the climate crisis.

I hope this hurts Putin and Russia!

This is an old photo dated August 18, 2015 of President Putin in his C-Explorer-3 bathyscaphe into the Black Sea outside Sevastopol, where he went down to 83 metres deep to see a Byzantine shipwreck off the coast of Crimea. The Nord Stream pipelines are also 80-110 metres deep!!!

Russia has nothing to do with this. Why destroy his own pipe through which gas will flow? And why is the military exercise a few months ago, exactly in this area, kept quiet, and that a helicopter flew exactly over that place for half an hour? Why?

And it’s also the worst kind of climate disaster.

Poland’s former foreign minister identified USA for the terror attack on Russia's infrastructure. Radoslaw Sikorski, is well connected to Washington elites through his employment at various think tanks. This follows repeated Biden & Polish president threats to sabotage pipeline

why EU deal to buy gas from russia at the first place as we know EU and Russia are not at the same boat?!

Everyone and their dog knows it was the US that bombed the pipelines, it was an attack on Europe by the US. The US suffers nothing if the pipelines go down. Nobody blows up their cash register. And Im from the EU and totally anti-Russian. But the US needs to own this

It's because of global warming, and the people didn't get dem vacciness... cmon isn't it obviouss

Without these two pipes, who is the winner and biggest gainer if not USA.

So Russia & EU spend billions to build the Nordstream 2 pipeline, pumping gas to Europe so it will no longer have to pay transit fees to Ukraine & Poland. Then blows it up so it can keep paying billions to them. Thanks western media for relieving us of critical thinking skills

What i need to know? Just present the facts, i will decide what i need to know, not you.

Only the Americans had the means, motive and opportunity to blow up cheap energy for Germany. On the same day, the Norway-Poland pipeline was opened and it was, of course, untouched by any explosions.

Could it be the cold weather? You know, like you have leave your taps running so they don't burst in winter 🥶

BREAKING: America denies thing it so fucking did

America did it 🐍

Those pesky yanks up to no good again 😁

The US Department of Corruption is responsible.

Only a powerful state can do that. Stupid to think it can be Russia

Russia has denied the attack, so that means they are the instigators of this act of state sponsored terrorism. Russia stare you in the face and lie, but the west know who did this!
