"Undersea Gas Pipeline Terrorism, West Behind It... Evidence Exists"
Russia claimed to have "evidence of Western involvement" in the explosion-like incident that occurred in the gas pipeline connecting to Germany through the Baltic Sea.
On the 30th (local time), according to foreign media including Sputnik News, Sergey Naryshkin, head of Russia's Foreign Intelligence Service, said, "We have obtained materials pointing to traces of the West organizing and executing these terrorist acts."
He also added, "The West is using every means to hide the real perpetrators and organizers of this international terrorist act."
However, he did not specify what the concrete evidence was.
Russia has condemned the recent Nord Stream 1 and 2 leak incidents as acts of terrorism and has repeatedly suggested U.S. involvement behind the scenes.
