The Nord Stream inspection found a fourth leak in the pipeline.
Germany’s ambassador to the UK said a fourth leak had been discovered in the Nord Stream pipelines connecting Russia to Germany. Moreover, the leaks provide a “solid indication” these were acts of sabotage. “It didn’t happen just like that. We think that there is a very, very strong indication these were acts of sabotage,” Miguel Berger, Germany’s ambassador to the UK, reported to CNN. “We have two gas leaks in Danish and two in Swedish exclusive economic zones,” Berger added. Berger continued by saying that Sweden and Denmark will lead the investigation into the leaks, but that results were likely to take up to 10 days because gas is still escaping from the pipelines. Berger said that in Germany’s view, the leaks were not the product of natural causes and that a non-state actor could not have caused this damage.
