The Kremlin said on Thursday it doubted the attacks on the Nord Stream pipelines last September could have been carried out without state support.
Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov‘s comments came after the New York Times this week reported that US officials were looking into whether a pro-Ukrainian non-government group was responsible for the blasts.
“As for the pro-Ukrainian angle, you know, the idea that some Dr Evil organised it, that’s hard to believe. It was too difficult a task, which probably only a well-trained special state service was capable of – and there are not too many of them in our world,” Peskov said when asked about the report.
