“These events are no coincidence and affect us all. All information shows that the leaks were the result of deliberate action. We will support any investigation aimed at clarifying what happened and why, and we will take steps to increase our resilience in energy security. Intentional actions that disrupt the European energy infrastructure are unacceptable and united.” , it will find a strong response.”

Both countries said there were indications that the leaks were not an accident but the result of a deliberate act.

What do these mouthy mucky-mucks know about natural gas, pipelines, or whether they were actually carrying natural gas? Everyone is itching to fight, and they need a scapegoat (or a few scapegoats).
Russia should send some CO2 through those pipeines. Maybe it would put out some fires.

Wars are fought for the economy, a country targets the developing country to substitute its own resources, covets its territory and declares war. He lies to the public through the media. It is a different situation than the Ukraine-Russia war, in question imperialism has started to appear in its most brutal form and capitalism cannot be controlled. Since nothing can replace capitalism, they have to show their strength, there is an imbalance between resources and supply.
