Germany has issued a European arrest warrant against a Ukrainian diving instructor who allegedly was part of a team that blew up the Nord Stream gas pipelines, according to a report by three German media outlets published on Wednesday.
German investigators believe that the man, last known to have lived in Poland, was one of the divers who planted explosive devices on pipelines running from Russia to Germany under the Baltic Sea in September 2022, the SZ and Die Zeit newspapers reported alongside the ARD broadcaster, citing unnamed sources.
The German prosecutor general’s office declined to comment on the report, which said that Germany had asked Poland in June to arrest the man.
Hardly Hot Take – Zelensky and Biden were behind this. It was done to hurt Russia but also wavering NATO members (Hello Germany!) who loved Russia’s cheap gas.
Hunter and Joe’s Ukraine scam may also have played a role in seeing the sabotage plan move forward.
