Nebenja said: "What does this say? You don't need to be a detective or analyst to understand that the United States and its allies are trying to cover up the trail, concoct all sorts of fabricated claims, and refuse to respond to the facts that have been exposed to embarrass Washington. ”
In addition, in response to a question as to whether Moscow intends to raise such initiatives again, Nebenja said that Russia will no longer introduce a draft resolution on the international investigation into the destruction of the Nord Stream pipeline.
"I think that's enough. It (votes) reveals people's true attitudes to this issue. Nebenja said.
On the 27th local time, the United Nations Security Council failed to adopt the draft resolution submitted by Russia calling on the Secretary-General of the organization to establish an international committee to investigate the destruction of the "Nord Stream" natural gas pipeline. Due to the position of Western countries, the document failed to receive the required number of votes.
Earlier, Russian President Vladimir Putin said that Russia proposed that Denmark inspect the "Nord Stream" pipeline to determine whether there were other explosive devices, but the Danish side gave a vague answer. Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said he did not expect transparency in the investigation of the incident.
On September 2022, 9, an explosion leaked in the Nord Stream pipeline, which transports natural gas from Russia to Germany and other European countries via the Baltic Sea. It was widely accepted that the incident was "sabotage". A few days later, Denmark, Sweden and Germany began independent investigations. The Russian side has repeatedly called for a joint investigation, but the relevant countries have refused.
On February 2023, 2, Seymour Hersh, a senior investigative journalist in the United States, broke the news that the "Nord Stream" pipeline explosion was carried out by the US military at the behest of US President Joe Biden, and the Norwegian military was involved, while the United States insisted on denying that it was related to the "Nord Stream" pipeline explosion.
