“It’s a very surprising coincidence that on the very day when President (Poland) Andrzej Duda and Prime Minister (Denmark) Mette Frederiksen and I opened the Baltic Pipeline, on that very day someone commits an act, probably – me I will use this wording – sabotage,” Morawiecki said on the air of Polish television.

“This is probably a signal from Russia. We expect the assumptions to be confirmed. This is very worrying, it shows what means, what mechanisms the Russians are able to turn to in order to further destabilize Europe,” he added.

On Monday, Nord Stream 2 AG reported that on one of the lines of Nord Stream 2 (it was filled with technical gas after construction), an emergency occurred in Danish waters near the island of Bornholm, accompanied by a sharp drop in pressure. The reasons are unknown, an investigation is underway, the company specified. Then Nord Stream AG, the operator of Nord Stream, reported on the pressure drop on both lines. The reasons are also not known.

The work of Nord Stream has been suspended since the end of August due to problems with the repair of Siemens turbines caused by Western sanctions. However, the pipeline remained filled with gas.

According to information from the Danish and Swedish authorities, two gas leaks were discovered at Nord Stream in the northeast of Bornholm Island and one at Nord Stream 2 in the southeast of the island.
