Russia wants UN to create Nord Stream commission
MOSCOW/BERLIN, Mar 14 (PRIME) -- An object discovered 30 kilometers off the location of the Nord Stream pipelines’ blast in Denmark’s exclusive economic zone that could be a fragment of a bomb shows that the U.N. must create a commission, Russian Foreign Ministry’s spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said in statement late on Monday.
“The find discovered during the inspection again points to the dire need for the Security Council to make a resolution for the U.N. Secretary General to establish a commission with the scope of bringing all circumstances of the sabotage to light to prevent that from happening in the future,” Zakharova said.
The withdrawal of the Western countries from constructive work on the resolution and their refusal to grant Russia access to the investigation are proofs that they are deliberately preventing the truth from coming out, she said.
The New York Times reported earlier quoting intelligence data that a pro-Ukrainian group was behind the Nord Stream pipeline sabotage, while German daily Zeit said that the traces of the sabotage lead to Ukraine, and that the operation was done using a yacht rented from a Polish company owned by two Ukrainians.
German magazine Der Spiegel said on Monday that the Bavaria Cruiser 50 yacht that was allegedly used during the sabotage stayed in the open near the Rugen Island’s Cape Bug in the territory of a former military port.
