Patrushev made this statement at the 19th annual meeting of the secretaries of the security councils of the SCO member states.
As the speaker recalled, Western media and officials “vying with each other” talked about the fact that the explosions were allegedly organized by Ukrainians who approached the gas pipelines on a yacht.
“The fact is that only special units can carry out such an operation. As you know, the USA and England have them at their disposal,” RIA Novosti quotes Patrushev.
Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov drew attention to the fact that after the sabotage of the Nord Stream and Nord Stream 2 gas pipelines, business from Germany and other European countries began to move to the United States.
