Press TV – Sept 27, 2022
Moscow says it is “extremely concerned” about recent damage sustained by the two Nord Stream gas pipelines linking Russia and Europe in the Baltic Sea.
The Nord Stream 1 and 2 gas pipelines were hit by unexplained leaks on Monday. The Nord Stream 1 leaks were first spotted on Monday evening, hours after a drop in pressure was reported in Nord Stream 2, according to the Swedish Maritime Administration (SMA).
Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said that pressure in the gas pipeline had dropped significantly as a result of the three leaks.
“Yesterday, information appeared both from Gazprom and from the operating company,” Peskov said.
He said, “This is very disturbing news. Indeed, we are talking about some destruction to the pipeline, it is not yet clear what kind.”
“This is a completely unprecedented situation that requires urgent investigation. We are extremely concerned about this news,” Peskov added.
The damage to the 1,200-kilometer Nord Stream pipeline took place in the Danish economic zone.

The pipelines, operated by Russian gas giant Gazprom, are not currently in operation, but they both still contain gas.
According to reports, environmental impact appeared to have been limited so far.
The Eurasia Group said the pipelines “are designed to avert accidental damage,” pointing out that they consisted of concrete-coated thick steel pipes that lie on the seabed.
“Given both lines were still pressured and each has the capacity to pipe around 165mn cubic meters of methane-heavy gas per day, leaks of this size are a severe safety and environmental hazard,” said Henning Gloystein, at the group.
Nord Stream, the pipelines’ Swiss-based operator, however, said the incidents were “unprecedented,” but suggested most of the leaking methane would dissolve in the water.
Gazprom progressively reduced the volumes of gas being delivered via Nord Stream 1 until it shut the pipeline completely at the end of August, blaming Western sanctions for the delay of necessary repairs to the pipeline.
The new Nord Stream 2 pipeline had yet to enter commercial operations, but it contained gas under pressure.
Europe to investigate ‘possible sabotage’
Europe, which has been experiencing a worsening energy crisis, has signaled that suspicious leaks on the pipelines are highly likely to be the result of sabotage.
“It is too early to conclude yet, but it is an extraordinary situation,” said Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen.
“There are three leaks, and therefore it is difficult to imagine that it could be accidental,” she added.
German officials also said there was concern in Berlin the sudden loss of pressure in both pipelines could be the result of a “targeted attack” on Europe’s gas infrastructure.
German daily Tagesspiegel reported that “the Nord Stream pipelines may have been damaged by targeted attacks and leaked as a result.” According to a source close to the government and relevant authorities quoted in the newspaper, “everything speaks against a coincidence.”
“We cannot imagine a scenario that is not a targeted attack,” the source said.
Germany has previously accused Russia of wielding energy as a weapon amid tensions over the war in Ukraine. Russia denies the accusations and blames the West for gas shortages in Europe.
Poland’s Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki also said, that, “We see clearly that it’s an act of sabotage, related to the next step of escalation of the situation in Ukraine.”
Kremlin’s spokesman did not rule out an act of sabotage, saying, “What the cause was — before the results of the investigation appear, no version can be excluded.”
Ukraine, which was attacked by Russia in late February, has long opposed the Nord Stream pipelines, arguing they were designed to weaken its position as one of the main conduits for Russian gas into Europe.
According to Eurasia Group, “The multiple undersea leaks mean neither pipeline will likely deliver any gas to the EU over the coming winter, irrespective of political developments in the Ukraine war.”
“Depending on the scale of the damage, the leaks could even mean a permanent closure of both lines.”
Ukraine accuses Russia of ‘terrorist attack’
Kiev accused Moscow of carrying out a “terrorist attack” on the gas pipelines.
“The large-scale ‘gas leak’ from Nord Stream 1 is nothing more than a terrorist attack planned by Russia and an act of aggression towards the EU,” Ukrainian presidential advisor Mikhaylo Podolyak said on Twitter.
Podolyak accused Russia of seeking to “destabilize the economic situation in Europe and cause pre-winter panic.”
I remember reading over the weekend, a US navel Ship/group was in the baltic sea near Bornholm. Hmmmmm?????
THE BATTLE OF CABLE ST
As W W 2 looked increasingly likely in the 1930s, the Synagogues put out the
message for all jews to get into anything to do with war supplies, Winston Churchill and Herbert Morrison
the Home Office minister and minister for provisions, made sure everything came from jewish suppliers.
Lord Lindeman, the cut out man between Rothschild and Churchill, said on Jewish news,
quote ” This is one very good business opportunity for us all”
Herbert Morrison was Peter Mandlesons grandfather, Aleister Crowley Churchills freind
and fellow 33rd degree mason, said of Morrison “he is so bent he cant even piss straight”
When our menfolk were fighting W W 2 the jews in the UK went to jewish doctors and got signed
off war service with petty things like flat feet short sight and occasional severe headaches.
This left the country at the mercy of swathes of jewish men.
London suffered very badly with these gangs, the Kray twins took over from Peter Rachman
who took over from Jack “spot” Comer and Billy Hill, until recently organised crime gangs were jewish and supported by Mossad.
Similarly in Northern Ireland drugs like ectasy tablets etc came in by the thousand from Mossad to be sold by the Para-Militaries to raise money to buy israeli guns and exposives.
Master criminal Mad Frankie Fraser said in a TV interview that during the wartime blackout,
the jewish gangs would go out at night to the shops and businesses who refused to pay them protection money, and rob them then set them on fire, they would then say it was caused by a stray German bomb.
Churchill himself used this excuse when he had the British Geneology centre burnt down with its births and deaths documents going back centuries, this was so that later he could claim that there were always people of colour here when they only started coming in after w w 2.
Houses and businesses were burgled, and the contents would be sold in London’s Petticoat Lane
an area well known for fencing stolen goods.
Black marketeers con men spivs fences and forged food coupon sellers, all jews and all operating in london, the expression “oh what a lovely war” was heard on many jewish lips.
The soldiers away fighting, did not get their pay regularly, and many wives at home got into debt
with the jewish moneylenders, the jews forced them to sign away their homes, many were forced into prostitution for the jews, and any who ran away had their faces slashed, this was why the jews were called
” Razor gangs”, the Edgware Rd in London was where many teenage and even underage girls were forced to perform sexually for the jew, these girls were known as “shiksa trade” and a lot of money was made from the USA servicemen over here.
So the Muslim gangs who were recently exposed as raping hundreds of young kids is nothing new,
and our government let both cases go on and on.
The broadcaster William Joyce had his face slashed for speaking out about wartime jewish crime.
I remember as a small boy my mothers small parlour in Londons East End would have the neighbours
all cram in to hear William Joyce broadcasts, because British soldiers would call the BBC ” Bullshit time”
and as the war ended, people would say its over and we won, we did not win
we lost big time, but the jews all made fortunes, and they were all able to move to upmarket homes away
from East London to Ilford Barkingside and Chigwell.
One can read online about the Battle of Cable street, , i watched it from my window and the truth was very different.
There was more fear in London of the jewish gangs than of Hitler, Oswald Mosely was a British Patriot and such a skilled politician that the Jews asked him to lead both UK political parties, but he refused.
Oswald Mosely set up the Blackshirts, men easily recognisable who could be called on for help,
these men old or very young, as our strong healthy men were away fighting to get Germany away from Hitler and back under jewish control, these brave men would stand guard outside shops and homes during the nights of the blackout to protect them, this was what caused the jews communists and racist types
to fight the English families in Cable st.
Don’t worry about it, everything is going according to the WEF plans to further devolve western Europe into a techno-Communist slave society, as Chabad agent Putin follows the Rothschild script perfectly..

“Profiling the top six natural gas producing countries in the world”
By Andrew Fawthrop 26 Apr 2021
https://www.nsenergybusiness.com/features/natural-gas-producing-countries/
1. United States – 921 billion cubic metres
The US accounted for 23% of the world’s natural gas production in 2019 – more than any other country and measured at just under 921 billion cubic metres (bcm).
Texas and Pennsylvania are the two states which produce the most natural gas in the US, largely via horizontal drilling and hydraulic fracturing techniques, or shale fracking.
2. Russia – 679 billion cubic metres
Russia is the world’s second-biggest natural gas-producing country, pumping out 679 bcm in 2019, which was 17% of the global total.
3. Iran – 244 billion cubic metres
Iran produced 6% of the world’s natural gas in 2019, measured at slightly more than 244 bcm.Economic sanctions enforced against the country, notably by the US in response to geopolitical tensions and Iran’s nuclear development programme, have hindered its ability to develop the commercial potential of these vast reserves further.
5. China – 178 billion cubic metres
6. Canada – 173 billion cubic metres
In the US and Canada they mainly frack for the gas damaging land-held water resources. But that is okay because with the investing class of the West having outsourced virtually all manner of manufacturing to coolie labor nations while using our own markets to enrich themselves with their low-cost products (e.g. Home Depot and Walmart) while creating huge trade deficits, the business class has to export something other than drugs and arms to balance the books. Then that dastardly nation – Russia – goes berserk and builds another pipeline to Europe dashing our chances for the planned expansion of our fracking and LNG industry.
Why worry
There should be laughter after pain
There should be sunshine after rain
These things have always been the same
So why worry now
Why worry now
probably some israeli or british SAS
terror frogmen did some wrenching .
it does not matter Biden . we know
you + your masters hate us germans .
it honoures us ! PLENTY ENEMIES;
PLENTY HONOUR !

THE BATTLE OF CABLE ST

Thanks….great info to study.
I don’t deny nor debate any of it.
The J*w rats infiltrate everything.
The pipeline attack is more a message that, assuming it is in international waters, is that no way to provide security if and when it is repaired.
Or, conversely…why wasn’t it land based ? Would it be less prone to sabotage ?
As “Cui Bono” was noted above by Fred B…..while other nations may fill the gas supply void, my gut feel is a very cold winter for EU will be geo-engineered.
Finally, I am not convinced Putin is an innocent…IMHO he is part of this plot .
