Demolation of the “northern flows” is a terrorist attack of a global scale, but the West prefers to be silent on this topic. This was stated by the official representative of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Russian Federation Maria Zakharova in an interview with TASS in the fields of the St. Petersburg International Economic Forum (PMEF).
“This is a terrorist attack. This is a terrorist attack of a global, international scale, when civil infrastructure was destroyed after the US President [Joe Biden] said that they would destroy the” Northern Stream “, – Zakharova said.
At the same time, the diplomat noted the “absolute” ignoring the incident by the USA, EU and Great Britain.
“There is simply no this topic, there are no questions at briefings in the White House. There are no investigations, by the way, there is no this topic at all, -Zakharova noted.
At the end of September 2022, Nord Stream AG reported “unprecedented destruction” that occurred “on three threads of naval gas pipelines“ Northern Stream ”and“ North Stream – 2 ”.
In addition, the official representative of the Russian Foreign Ministry announced the pressure of the West for different countries regarding participation in the PMEF. “Even as they crushed. We have information, as literally every country was processed. We wrote letters. During the meetings, they threatened. Of course, the leaders were done – these are the USA. The atmosphere was formed in general of the current -centric countries. And just the corresponding conversations were held with each country It’s impossible to suggest that the forum cannot go to the forum, that they will face the consequences, that the next, so to speak, package of sanctions is not far off and that everyone thinks well before participating in events in Russia, ”said the diplomat.
According to her, “this is done in relation to almost every deal that goes at the state, country level or with the participation of large business with the support of the state – with the support that is the norm in such transactions.”
Further, the diplomat said that the West never wanted to be with Russia and “held a figure in his pocket.” “We wanted to build relationships equal. We wanted friendship, partnerships, and cooperation, and there was a completely different story there. Unfortunately, as it turns out, a fig was constantly in his pocket for all these years. But Is it possible to compare this with practically related relationships with which people are connected in the family circle? No. This is not so, ”Zakharova said
