CIA knew about Kiev plot to blow up Nord Stream – Der Spiegel

“It’s good,” the US agency told Ukrainian saboteurs about the plan, according to a source

The US Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) discussed the plan to blow up the Nord Stream pipelines in the Baltic Sea with Ukrainian saboteurs, German outlet Der Spiegel has reported, citing sources in Kiev.

The government in Berlin has attributed the September 2022 explosions that crippled the key energy conduits built to deliver Russian gas to Germany to a small group of Ukrainian operatives. Moscow has repeatedly expressed deep skepticism over the German version of events, arguing that such an operation in NATO-controlled waters could not have been executed without direct government assistance.
