Sabotage acts at Nord Stream pipelines should not be left uninvestigated — Kremlin

"The world must know the truth about the ones that committed this act of sabotage," Dmitry Peskov said

MOSCOW, February 9. /TASS/. Terrorist acts at Nord Stream pipelines should not be left without the investigation and punishment for the ones involved, Kremlin Spokesman Dmitry Peskov told reporters on Thursday.

"Certainly, the appearance of such reports once again shows the need for an open international investigation of this unprecedented attack against the international critical infrastructure. It is impossible to leave it without finding those responsible for that and without their punishment," Peskov said, commenting on the report of US journalist Seymour Hersh that the United States is behind the explosions at the Nord Stream pipelines.

"The world must know the truth about the ones that committed this act of sabotage," the Kremlin Spokesman said. "This is so because it is a very dangerous precedent. If somebody committed it once, he can commit it again in any point of the globe for the second time," Peskov stated.
