  1. Why the Nord Stream pipelines “suddenly” blew up and why Radek Sikorski was so happy about it:

    Baltic Pipe: Norway-Poland gas pipeline opens in key move to cut dependency on Russia

    Leaders from Poland, Norway and Denmark have attended a ceremony to mark the opening of the new Baltic Pipe [on 09-27-22], a key stage in the drive to wean Poland and Europe off Russian gas.

    The pipeline will transport natural gas from the Norwegian shelf via Denmark and through the Baltic Sea to Poland. It is the centrepiece of a Polish strategy to diversify away from Russia that began years before Moscow’s February invasion of Ukraine triggered a global energy crisis.

    The flows from Norway along with supplies via liquefied gas terminals are central to Poland’s plan. The country was cut off from Russian gas supplies in April, allegedly for refusing to pay in roubles.

    “The era of Russian domination in the field of gas is coming to an end, the era that was marked by blackmail, threats and extortion,” Polish Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki said at the inauguration at Budno in western Poland.

    Norwegian Energy Minister Terje Aasland said it was “an important step on the important road to Europe’s independence from Russian energy”.

    “We must do everything we can to eliminate energy as an instrument of Russian power,” added Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen. “Together we will defeat Putin.”

    The inauguration came after Danish and Swedish authorities identified several gas leaks on the Russian-operated Nord Stream pipelines, prompting fears of sabotage.

  4. US military aircraft circled Nord Stream incident site in September

    “US military helicopters habitually and on numerous occasions circled for hours over the site of the Nord Stream pipelines incident near Bornholm Island earlier in September, Flightradar24 data showed.

    These revelations come after German newspaper Der Siegel reported Tuesday that the US Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) warned the German government there would be attacks on Nord Stream gas pipelines weeks ahead of any incident being reported around the pipelines.”

  7. From Pres. Trump on the gasline sabotage:

    U.S. “Leadership” should remain “cool, calm, and dry” on the SABOTAGE of the Nord Stream Pipelines. This is a big event that should not entail a big solution, at least not yet. The Russia/Ukraine catastrophe should NEVER have happened, and would definitely not have happened if I were President. Do not make matters worse with the pipeline blowup. Be strategic, be smart (brilliant!), get a negotiated deal done NOW. Both sides need and want it. The entire World is at stake. I will head up group???

  10. The blown-up pipelines have NSA virtual fingerprints all over them, for what it’s worth. I just wonder how Tucker reckons this will be such an environmental catastrophe. Isn’t the gas pressure turned off at the Russian end? The bubbles would seem to be just coming from seawater pouring into the pipes and replacing the relatively low pressure gas in them. It’s a big volume, but it should peter out pretty quickly.
