The Danish government was never interested in an investigation into the Nord Stream explosions, Russia claims.
Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova claimed that the Danish authorities had not responded to repeated requests from Russia.
This is evidenced by a recent statement by the Russian Foreign Ministry.
Russian claims are refuted
– Despite Denmark’s refusal to conduct a joint investigation into the act of sabotage, the Russian Foreign Ministry will continue to demand that the Danish government provide answers to the questions posed, writes ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova.
The Danish government rejects the Russian accusations. The Danish Foreign Ministry recently told the Ritzau news agency that Denmark has been constantly informing Russia of the investigation.
Maria Zakharova claims that the Danish government was “never interested” in conducting an investigation that could “clarify who was behind the attack and who carried out the attack,” Russian news agency TASS writes.
It appears from the announcement that the Danes “did not disclose what the initial investigation showed.”
international group
Earlier this week, Russian President Vladimir Putin said he wanted Denmark to allow Russia to participate in the investigation into last year’s Nord Stream sabotage.
At the same time, Putin said, Russia had previously asked Denmark to become part of an international group to investigate the sabotage.
“Denmark decides
Denmark replied that the country has the right to investigate and decide who can investigate the bombings that took place in Denmark’s exclusive economic zone. Two out of the four leaks occurred in the area of Denmark.
It is still unknown exactly what happened when the Nord Stream 1 and 2 gas pipelines suffered explosions on September 26 last year.
