Nikolai Patrushev, a top Russian security official, has accused the United States and the United Kingdom of being responsible for the sabotage of the Nord Stream 2 pipeline. Patrushev asserts that Ukraine lacks the necessary specialists and equipment to carry out such an operation, suggesting instead that it was the work of UK and US special forces. He further warned that the US and UK might be planning additional terrorist attacks, including the potential sabotage of underwater fiber-optic cables that provide global internet connectivity. This follows a statement by President Biden, who previously indicated, 'If Russia invades...then there will be no longer a Nord Stream 2. I promise you, we will be able to do that.'
