"Controversial even before the Russian invasion of Ukraine for increasing Europe's reliance on Moscow, Nord Stream had become increasingly so following the outbreak of the war. Before the war, Germany got over half of its gas from Russia. A series of underwater explosions in 2022 caused serious damage to the pairs of Nord Stream 1 and 2 pipelines, and essentially rendered all four inoperable. Because the explosions occurred in Swedish and Danish waters on German-owned equipment, all three countries launched investigations."
Ukraine's president urged allies to deliver pledged air-defense systems after Russia launched a volley of overnight airstrikes that killed at least two people. Poland's president said NATO must be better prepared for war and insisted everything be done 'to be ready for war.' NATO allies condemned Russia's indiscriminate strikes in August and pledged to strengthen Ukraine's defenses. An Italian court ordered the extradition to Germany of Serhii K., a Ukrainian national arrested in August on suspicion of sabotaging the Nord Stream pipelines. Investigations found 2022 underwater explosions severely damaged Nord Stream 1 and 2, rendering the pipelines inoperable.
