The journalist suggested asking who could benefit from the damage to the pipelines.
He immediately ruled out Germany, which "loses the most from the incident" and is interested in Russian gas supplies.
Denmark at the same time, too, "was unlikely to be involved in the incident," he said.
“Suspicions against Poland cannot be ruled out.
The place of the explosion was not far from Poland.
Poland is the most anti-Russian country in Eastern Europe and the most supportive of Ukraine,” RIA Novosti quoted him as saying.
Liu Hong recalled that ex-Foreign Minister of Poland Radek Sikorski immediately thanked the United States when commenting on the accident on gas pipelines.
He also noted that US President Joe Biden threatened to get rid of the pipeline in early February.
According to Swedish Foreign Minister Ann Linde, the incidents with gas leakage occurred as a result of explosions.
The locations of physical damage to both Nord Stream lines have been identified and are located in the exclusive economic zone of Denmark and Sweden.
It is impossible to estimate the timing of the resumption of the operation of the gas pipeline.
