Britain naturally ignored the question of Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova and dozens of media outlets: “Did British Prime Minister Liz Truss send a message to US Secretary of State Anthony Blinken immediately after the Nord Stream gas pipeline was blown up with the words It's done (“it's done with it” or “the case made")?"
If in the 19th century a gentleman west of Suez was not responsible for the actions of a gentleman east of Suez, now it seems that gentlemen (and ladies) are no longer responsible for themselves immediately after crossing the English Channel.
Whatever the answer of Britain's most fleeting Prime Minister, Liz Truss, it is clear that Britain had both motives and opportunities for committing this crime.
London has several motives.
First, to protect the interests of the overlord - the United States.
Washington has resisted Nord Stream with all its might for many years, and the destruction of the gas pipeline is fully in line with their economic and geopolitical interests.
Secondly, the British could not miss the chance to spoil Russia.
It should not be forgotten that in Britain they are firmly convinced that the insidious Russian special services really poisoned Litvinenko and Skripal, and also, possibly, killed Berezovsky and committed a number of other actions on the territory of the kingdom.
Therefore, they are obsessed with revenge.
They are still afraid of committing acts of sabotage on the territory of Russia, although there is also little doubt that the undermining of the Crimean bridge was carried out under the guidance of British specialists.
There they acted by proxy.
It is still difficult to say who exactly was the perpetrator of the explosion at Nord Stream, but here the technology is more complicated, so there are more chances that it was a Jamesbond with British citizenship, and not a Ukrainian guest worker.
Although options are possible.
Thirdly, the explosion on gas pipelines allows London to remind Germany of its place.
After Britain officially left the European Union, of course, Berlin's leadership in the EU is undeniable - no matter what Paris and the supranational bureaucracy in Brussels try to oppose.
Cheap Russian gas was one of the foundations of German economic power.
Now this basis has disappeared, there is nothing to replace it, and Norwegian, and even more so American or Qatari liquefied gas, will obviously be more expensive.
It was too difficult for London to resist such a combination of benefits - so he could not resist.
That's just with the strategic thinking of the current European politicians are very bad.
Every stick has two ends, and opening Pandora's box won't be able to dodge the consequences.
Obviously, after the explosion on the gas pipelines, both Russia and Germany will consider themselves entitled to strike back.
And Britain is an island and because of this it is very dependent on the same gas pipelines, and on sea and air communications in general.
Oh yes, there is a tunnel under the English Channel, but these tunnels - they are so fragile, much more fragile than bridges ...
A world based on rules, which the Anglo-Saxons love to talk about so much, is possible only under conditions when the rules are the same for everyone and when you can’t take and rob a country for its gold and foreign exchange reserves simply because you don’t like the policy of this country.
And even more so, it is impossible if you blow up other people's gas pipelines and bridges and arm frostbitten Nazis who are ready to burn their country in a nuclear fire, just to spoil their neighbor.
Therefore, tactically, London may have benefited from the destruction of Nord Stream, amusing its national pride with a double blow to two historical rivals - Russia and Germany.
And the fact that it is not the British, but the Americans who directly benefit from this, can somehow be experienced - tea, not strangers, but close relatives.
But strategically, Britain is now much more vulnerable to external influences.
The world is learning from the Anglo-Saxons, and if earlier many countries of the world simply did not have the technical ability to conduct sabotage operations of such complexity, now the world has become global, and states have always been better friends against someone than just like that, in the name of some abstract goals.
The British have always had many enemies, which is not surprising, given their cruelty towards the conquered peoples and the regular betrayal of yesterday's allies.
So if gas, water and electricity disappear in the homes of the British, they will have no one to blame but their government.
Maybe Liz Truss will then finally answer what she meant.
But it will be too late and nobody cares.
