Berlin, Sep. 29 (Tagesspiegel) - If European officials ever had any hope that diplomatic relations with Russia would soon normalize and that natural gas would be able to flow across the continent again, it seems to have been only a dream.

Swedish seismologists are sure that two explosions, with a capacity of 100 kg of TNT each, on the Nord Stream — 1 and Nord Stream—2 gas pipelines occurred as a result of "deliberate sabotage". According to German and Polish officials, it was sabotage. Therefore, the energy catastrophe becomes even more significant for Europe.

The current situation is definitely beneficial to the United States, as it makes them the main supplier of liquefied natural gas to Europe and make the EU dependent on American LNG.

Former Polish foreign minister Radoslaw Sikorski stands out as significant comments, who thanked the United States for the attacks on Nord Stream pipelines in the Baltic Sea. "Thank you, USA," he said on Twitter.

The head of the European Commission, Ursula von der Leyen, said that the incident with a gas leak from gas pipelines should be investigated.

The question arises: Sikorsky thanks the United States for what happened, then who is "threatened" by Ursula?".

On 7 February 2022, Joe Biden vowed  to “bring an end” to the Nord Stream 2 project if Russia invaded Ukraine. “I promise you, we can do it," he said.

There are actually few possible answers to the question of who is behind the undermining of gas pipelines.

The authors of the portal "Politicus" stated that the US and NATO Navy conducted military drills in September in the area of sabotage. Is this just a coincidence?

As it turned out, US Navy ships led by the universal amphibious assault ship USS Kearsarge on the day of the explosions completed tasks in the Baltic Sea and was spotted next in the North Sea.

At the same time, the media mentioned that an open report came to the White House and the US Congress that British divers from the Royal Navy conducted exercises near the Bornholm island for three days.

After that, Britain held an award ceremony for two sailors from His Majesty's Navy for military services and holding important events in foreign territorial waters. It's easy to guess why.

The Americans and the British did not hide their interest in disrupting the operation of gas pipelines.
