Intelligence Suggests Pro-Ukrainian Group Sabotaged Pipelines, U.S. Officials Say
New intelligence reviewed by U.S. officials suggests that a pro-Ukrainian group carried out the attack on the Nord Stream pipelines last year, a step toward determining responsibility for an act of sabotage that has confounded investigators on both sides of the Atlantic for months.
U.S. officials said that they had no evidence President Volodymyr Zelensky of Ukraine or his top lieutenants were involved in the operation, or that the perpetrators were acting at the direction of any Ukrainian government officials...
... U.S. officials said there was much they did not know about the perpetrators and their affiliations. The review of newly collected intelligence suggests they were opponents of President Vladimir V. Putin of Russia, but does not specify the members of the group, or who directed or paid for the operation.
U.S. officials declined to disclose the nature of the intelligence, how it was obtained or any details of the strength of the evidence it contains. They have said that there are no firm conclusions about it, leaving open the possibility that the operation might have been conducted off the books by a proxy force with connections to the Ukrainian government or its security services...

Cheira-me que algo não anda a correr bem pelos bastidores. Este artigo tresanda a coisas mal explicadas.
Portanto vamos rever a coisa. Os americanos resolveram rebentar com um gasoduto russo que ainda por cima é estratégico.
Os russos não vão largar isto. Algo vai acontecer.
Artigos destes só lançam suspeitas de que quem fez, quem ordenou, está a começar a sentir-se desconfortável.
Uma coisa é certa. Alguém vai pagar e bem por isto.
O que terá acontecido, o que será que alguém já sabe para andarem com tretas destas. A coisa é grande demais. Isto não é um gasoduto dum país do 3º mundo que nada pode fazer a não ser reclamar.
Isto foi feito a um gasoduto de uma superpotência nuclear.
Eles vão-se ficar?
É claro que não. Resta saber o que vão fazer.
