Swedish prosecutors announced on February 5 local time that they would decide on the next step in the investigation of the Nord Stream pipeline this week, but did not specify a specific date.
The prosecutor's office, which is leading the investigation in Sweden, said the next steps would include whether to close the investigation, push for prosecutions or demand the arrest of suspects. The Swedish side has so far not publicly identified any suspects associated with Nord Stream**.
Nord Stream "gas pipelines take place**.
The Nord Stream gas pipeline departs from Russia and reaches Germany via the Baltic Sea floor. On September 26, 2022, this pipeline occurred**, leaking a large amount of natural gas. The investigation found that three of the four pipelines were leaking, with a total of four leak points, located in the waters near Sweden and Denmark.
Sweden, Denmark and Germany separately investigated the incident. Russia's repeated calls for a joint investigation have been rejected.
Swedish prosecutors previously said that the investigation confirmed that the Nord Stream pipelines had been sabotage, but it was not known who did it. Seymour Hersh, a well-known American investigative journalist, once broke the news that the "Nord Stream" pipeline was secretly sabotaged by US intelligence services and the US military. The United States ** denies this.
Denmark's law enforcement department investigating "Nord Stream" ** refused to comment on Sweden's latest statement on the 5th.
Russian Ambassador to Germany Sergei Nechaev said on December 29 last year that it was "unbelievable" that Europe, which has the most advanced means of intelligence and technical expertise, could not reveal the terrorist attacks on Europe's strategic infrastructure that took place "under their noses" more than a year ago.
