A former German official revealed, on Thursday, that analyzes do not rule out that a Western country was the one that blew up the bomb Nord Stream gas pipeline In the Baltic Sea, last September.
In remarks reported by the British newspaper The Times, he said that America, Britain, Poland and Ukraine benefit from the Nord Stream bombing.
That scenario was also ruled out Russia is behind the bombing line, indicating that they have begun to repair it.
For his part, the former energy advisor at the US State Department told the newspaper that he was not surprised that the process of finding evidence in the case of terrorist attacks on pipelines had not yet been completed, noting that underwater investigations usually always take a lot of time, and in this case it may not be possible.

Sabotage
It is noteworthy that many political officials and experts had hinted earlier that an act of sabotage was behind the gas leakage from the Nord Stream 1 and Nord Stream 2 pipelines between Russia and Germany.
A number of experts also considered that various military forces in the region are capable of carrying out such an operation.
The spill occurred in international waters off the Danish island of Bornholm in the Baltic Sea, between southern Sweden and Poland, an area that has long been one of the most closely watched bodies of water in the world.
Four large leaks were detected on September 26, in the Nord Stream 1 and 2 pipelines off the Danish island of Bornholm, two in Swedish economic waters, and two others in Danish waters.
Since the start of the conflict in Ukraine, the two pipelines connecting Russia with Germany have been at the center of geopolitical tensions after Moscow’s decision to cut off gas supplies to Europe in response to Western sanctions imposed on it, due to the military operation it launched on the territory of the western neighbor on February 24, 2022.
