A senior Ukrainian military officer with intelligence ties coordinated the sabotage attack on the Nord Stream natural gas pipeline in September 2022, according to a Washington Post report.
A former senior Ukrainian official was the coordinator of the explosions that ruptured the Nord Stream 1 and Nord Stream 2 natural gas pipelines , the Washington Post reported, citing Ukrainian officials and European sources, and in conjunction with German periodical Der Spiegel.
Chervinsky, in a written statement to the Washington Post, denied his involvement in the Nord Streams sabotage. 'All speculations about my involvement in the attack on Nord Stream are being spread by Russian propaganda without any basis,' Chervinsky said. Since the Sept. 26, 2022, explosion, rumors have swirled around who was responsible for the sabotage of the Nord Streams — with people quick to point fingers to Washington, Kyiv or Moscow.
In February, Seymour Hersh, a Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist, alleged that U.S. Navy divers laid bombs that destroyed the Nord Stream 2 pipeline under a direct order from President Joe Biden. National Security Council spokesperson John Kirby repeatedly denied the United States was involved in the explosions following Hersh's reporting. 'It’s a completely false story. There is no truth to it, Shannon,' Kirby told host Shannon Bream, on 'Fox News Sunday' in February.
