Suspected State Actor Behind Pipeline Sabotage in Sweden

Swedish prosecutors have stated that a state actor is the most likely culprit for the explosions that caused damage to the Nord Stream gas pipelines in the Baltic Sea last year, which was deemed as sabotage. However, the identity of the perpetrator remains unclear. The investigation is focused on examining if Swedish interests or security were threatened by the act. The case is complex and time-consuming to investigate, and the prosecutors' office gave no estimate on when the Swedish investigation would wrap up.

Swedish investigator suspects state actor involvement in Nord Stream attacks.

The involvement of a state actor in the Nord Stream pipeline attacks last year is the "absolute main scenario", according to the Swedish prosecutor investigating the incident. The blasts occurred in the economic zones of Sweden and Denmark, and both countries say the explosions were deliberate, but have yet to determine who was responsible. The investigation continues, and while no conclusion has been drawn, the type of explosive used has ruled out a large number of actors. Nord Stream 1 and Nord Stream 2 were built by Russia's state-controlled Gazprom to pump 110 billion cubic metres of natural gas a year to Germany.
