As he noted in social networks, it is the United States that is behind the explosions.
“Sabotage, probably of American origin, on the Nord Streams showed what the NATO bloc is capable of,” TASS quoted him as saying.
In his opinion, the alliance is even ready to go for the use of nuclear weapons to give the "conflict a global character", so that France "must get out of this vicious circle."
“You need to be vigilant: this alliance is capable of the worst, up to the use of nuclear weapons under a false flag in order to give the conflict a global character,” the agency quoted him as saying.
Earlier, Swedish MEP Peter Lundgren asked the European Commission how they assess the explosions on the Nord Stream and Nord Stream 2 gas pipelines.
The incident on two Russian export gas pipelines to Europe, Nord Stream and Nord Stream 2, occurred on September 26.
According to The Wall Street Journal, German investigators admitted that the explosions could have been caused by sabotage.
