Did Ukraine Bomb Nord Stream Pipelines? German Report Says ‘All Evidence Points to Kyiv’

Oleksii Reznikov, the former Ukrainian defense minister, rejected the German report

The Nord Stream pipelines attack was one of the major wartime strikes on a soft target in history and the Western media wants you to forget it ever happened.  

But German outlets Der Spiegel and ZDF carried out an extensive report on the subject and determined in its headline that “All Evidence Points to Kyiv.” 

The report did not provide a smoking gun and admitted that some sources believe there are “too many inconsistencies” to blame any country. But there is a growing consensus that “all the leads point all-too-obviously towards Kyiv.”

The magazine concluded that at this point investigators from Germany’s BKA, the Federal Police, and the Office of the Federal Prosecutor “have few remaining doubts that a Ukrainian commando was responsible for blowing up the pipelines.”

The plan included six commandoes on a chartered yacht, the report said, according to a theory. These men were under the command of Ukrainian Commander-in-Chief Valerii Zaluzhny, the report said. 

In June, The Washington Post ran an exclusive report based on the embarrassing intelligence leak earlier this year from U.S. Air National Guard member Jack Texeira. 

The report said an unnamed European intelligence body informed the Central Intelligence Agency in June 2022—three months before the explosions—that the clandestine plans were overseen by Zaluzhny, and was not some kind of rogue operation. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky was reportedly not told about the plans so he can deny knowing about the incident.  

Zelensky denied the report.  

“I am president and I give orders accordingly,” Zelensky told Axel Springer, the media company that owns Politico. “Nothing of the sort has been done by Ukraine. I would never act that way.” 

Oleksii Reznikov, the former Ukrainian defense minister, rejected the German report and called the idea that Ukraine was behind the sabotage “delusional.” 

“With all due respect to the media, but this is a delusion. Zaluzhny has clearly defined tasks. And these tasks do not include operations abroad. His task is to repel armed aggression on the territory of Ukraine,” he said. 

The Post also reported that a six-person team of Ukrainian special operations forces had been planning the attack. The CIA shared the report with Germany at about the time it received the data. 

De Tijd, the Belgian newspaper, reported that military intelligence in Brussels received information about the incident from the CIA, which illustrates how “Western intelligence services, including Belgian ones, have been aware for months that Ukraine is probably involved in one of the most brutal and dangerous attacks on a European energy infrastructure.”
