According to the magazine, Sweden justified its refusal by claiming &#8220;the confidentiality level of the results of its investigation was too high to share them with other states.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\">However, as Der Spiegel points out, Sweden had not initially commented on the issue. Speaking about Sweden\u2019s refusal, Berlin said that it still hopes for cooperation with local authorities. Primarily, the German investigators need to assess images of the German army\u2019s Sea Cat underwater drone, which reportedly shows a larger crater, indicating a powerful explosion.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\">Moreover, most of the pipeline had been smashed and the current might have washed some parts of the pipe away after the incident. The weekly says that the German authorities believe after conducting an initial analysis that an explosive device equivalent to 500 kilos of TNT might have been used for the blast.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\">Earlier in the day, Germany\u2019s ARD television channel reported citing sources in the German government that Germany, Sweden and Denmark gave up plans to jointly investigate the sabotage at the Nord Stream pipelines and will do it separately instead. A German Interior Ministry spokesperson told reporters that the German Federal Police had completed investigative activities on the scene.<\/p>\n<p>Russia was also blocked from taking part in the original (now-ended) joint probe.<\/p>\n<p>From <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thelocal.dk\/20221013\/russia-aggrieved-at-germany-denmark-and-sweden-over-nord-stream-probe\/\">AFP\/The Local, &#8220;Russia aggrieved at Germany, Denmark and Sweden over Nord Stream probe&#8221;<\/a>:<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\">The ministry said it \u201cexpressed bewilderment\u201d over the lack of an official response to a request from Russia\u2019s Prime Minister Mikhail Mishustin to involve Russian energy giant Gazprom and \u201crepresentatives of the competent departments\u201d from Russia in the investigation conducted by Berlin, Copenhagen and Stockholm.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\">The envoys were told that if Russian experts are not involved \u201cMoscow will proceed from the fact that the named countries have something to hide or they are covering for the perpetrators of these terrorist acts\u201d, the ministry said.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\">It added that Russia will not recognise any \u201cpseudo-results\u201d of an investigation without its experts.<\/p>\n<p>Joe Biden <a href=\"https:\/\/www.informationliberation.com\/?id=63362\">&#8220;promised&#8221;
