He stated that Russian authorities always suspected the US was involved in this bombing.&nbsp;<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>\u201cAs far as Seymour Hersh\u2019s investigation is concerned, of course, we have studied his publication thoroughly and attentively. It contains nothing sensational or unexpected to us,\u201d he stated. \u201cWe assumed the involvement of the US and at least some of Washington\u2019s NATO allies in this outrageous crime, which was an armed attack on a key element of critical infrastructure,\u201d Ryabkov added.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>The sabotage of the Nord Stream pipelines would generally be considered&nbsp; as an act of war directed against Germany on the part of the US and the other state actors who assisted it. However, logic goes out the window when foreign policy leaders in the West are entranced by neoconservative\/neoliberal interventionist foreign policies.&nbsp;<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>On top of that, the Russo-Ukrainian conflict represents a golden opportunity for the boosters of American hegemony to extend the US\u2019s reach over European affairs. By knocking out the Nord Stream pipelines, the US has now rendered Germany more dependent on it for its energy needs. Like many other EU nations, Germany will need to rely on more expensive liquified natural gas now that it has been fully cut off from Russian gas sources. It also doesn\u2019t help that green fanaticism has swept across Germany which has destroyed any semblance of energy sovereignty.<\/em>\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Kissinger is no fool. It is no surprise that he knows that the Nord Stream was bombed by Ukraine-allied sources. Of course, Kissinger would never admit it publicly though. These Russian pranksters are owed a debt of gratitude for serving the public interest with their work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Original Article: <a href=\"https:\/\/bigleaguepolitics.com\/henry-kissinger-admits-ukraine-was-behind-nord-stream-pipeline-bombing-in-prankster-video\/\">https:\/\/bigleaguepolitics.com\/henry-kissinger-admits-ukraine-was-behind-nord-stream-pipeline-bombing-in-prankster-video\/<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.gcjdjhs3e.com\/32NN4QZ\/FGXLG\/\" target=\"_blank\"><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Former U.S. Secretary of State Henry Kissinger admitted that he believes Ukraine bombed the Nord Stream natural gas pipeline connecting Russia and Germany last year but still sympathized with Ukraine despite that act of terrorism.
