The findings of Copenhagen, Denmark’s inquiry into the 2022 explosions that damaged the Nord Stream gas pipes were released on Monday, with the statement that “authorities can conclude that there was deliberate sabotage.” However, according to a joint statement from the Danish security agency and Copenhagen police, there weren’t enough reasons to file a criminal case in Denmark.
The Nord Stream gas pipelines, which are intended to deliver Russian natural gas to Germany, were the target of the underwater explosions. The explosions happened on international seas, although they were still inside the economic zones of Denmark and Sweden. Sweden has already identified a state actor as the most probable perpetrator, based on its research.
Denmark’s investigation was one of three probes into the explosions. Sweden halted its investigation on February 7, citing that “Swedish jurisdiction does not apply.” The primary goal of the investigation was to determine if Sweden or its citizens were somehow involved, and Swedish officials handed over evidence to Germany for its ongoing investigation. Germany’s conclusions on the detonations have yet to be made public, leaving the source of the explosions a major international mystery.
