NATO Secretary General discussed with Scholz the situation around Nord Stream

MOSCOW, 30 Sep — PRIME. NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg discussed with German Chancellor Olaf Scholz the situation around Nord Stream and the ongoing investigation, the head of the alliance said.

“I spoke with Chancellor Olaf Scholz … We also discussed the sabotage at Nord Stream. We support the ongoing investigations and the heightened vigilance of NATO,” he wrote on Twitter.

On Monday, terrorist attacks occurred simultaneously on two Russian gas export pipelines to Europe. Germany, Denmark and Sweden do not rule out targeted sabotage. The Russian side officially requested information from Denmark about the emergency at Nord Stream as soon as the incident became known. The Danish authorities notified Russia of the explosions at the site of the gas leak. The operator of Nord Stream, Nord Stream AG, reported that the emergency on gas pipelines was unprecedented, and it was impossible to estimate the timing of repairs.
