130 - Dmitry Peskov: Danish investigation ends, Friend or Foe comment

 

26 Feb 2024 - Kremlin comments after another EU state drops Nord Stream probe,... 

Dmitry Peskov: 

Copenhagen must have found "close allies" when searching for the culprits behind the sabotage, a spokesman has suggested

[MRT: Note that he speaks in plural, my hypothesis is that the UK went rogue, US pulled out but is complicit for not stopping the mission and profiting from it] 

The Danish decision to end its investigation into the sabotage of the Nord Stream gas pipelines under the Baltic Sea was probably motivated by Copenhagen's unwillingness to establish the truth about the crime, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov has suggested...

[MRT: Note that NATO itself ststed there was a "substantial environmental damage"]

The Copenhagen Police do not see "sufficient grounds to pursue a criminal case in Denmark" over the incident, they said on Monday in a statement announcing the development. The probe, conducted jointly with the Danish Security and Intelligence Services (PET), was "complex and comprehensive" and resulted in a conclusion that the incident was deliberate sabotage. Nothing was said about possible suspects in the press-release...

The situation is "close to absurd," Peskov told journalists when asked about the news.

"Apparently, they were getting closer to, as they call it, outing their closest allies," he suggested. "One can only express absolute astonishment and nothing else."

[MRT: Note that usage of the plural.] 

Denmark said investigators cooperated with "relevant foreign partners," but Peskov stressed that Russian law enforcement was not among those.

"In the early stages of the investigation, we consistently asked the Danes for information about what had happened, but the requests were rejected," he said.
