The newspaper does not specify the sources it refers to, but claims that NATO tried not to disclose this information in order to "protect Ukraine" and avoid its aggravation of relations with Germany.
“Sooner or later, his name will definitely be announced, especially considering that he seems to have left his unusual “calling card”.
Ukraine's relations with its allies will remain in a better state if this person himself comes out with a confession, ”the journalists, quoted by TASS, write.
On March 7, The New York Times published an article stating that “new intelligence” indicates the involvement of a certain “pro-Ukrainian group” in undermining the Nord Stream in the Baltic Sea.
The publication noted that any involvement of Ukraine in undermining the Nord Streams will have serious consequences for the coalition supporting Kyiv in the confrontation with Russia.
The newspaper Die Zeit also wrote that in Germany, the investigation found a vessel that could have been involved in the explosions of pipelines, and traces lead to Ukraine.
After that, the press secretary of the President of Russia, Dmitry Peskov, expressed the opinion that the publications about the terrorist attacks on the Nord Streams were a coordinated stuffing.
The Russian embassy in the United States said that the leaks in the American media are an attempt to confuse those who are sincerely trying to understand this issue.
At the same time, American journalist Seymour Hersh previously published an investigation into the US involvement in the Nord Stream incident.
The Hersh investigation alleges that US divers mined Nord Stream under the cover of the BALTOPS 22 exercise, which took place in the Baltic Sea from June 5 to June 17, 2022.
