US and UK considering Nord Stream-style attacks – Putin aide
Such incidents are needed by the West to sow chaos and to advance its interests, Nikolay Patrushev says. Patrushev [said]: 💬 “According to available information, the Americans and the British are viewing the sabotage on the Nord Stream pipelines as one of many methods to advance their economic interests. They could attack other infrastructure facilities, including undersea fiber optic cables that provide communications throughout the world.” [...] “Since the hegemony of the West began to falter, Washington decided to bring chaos to the energy market, including by destabilizing maritime transportation,” the official explained. Destabilization is needed to put pressure on major consumers, including China and India, and to lay a foundation for grabbing more of the global energy market.
