EU vows to protect energy after Nord Stream leaks
STORY: Any intentional disruption to EU energy networks would meet a "robust and united response."
That was according to the bloc's top diplomat on Wednesday (September 28).
The comments come after sudden leaks in Russian gas pipelines to Europe, Nord Stream 1 and 2, which some states are saying was an act of sabotage.
The leaks caused gas to spew into the Baltic Sea, and Denmark’s armed forces, who provided footage of bubbles boiling to the top, said the disturbance was well over half a mile wide.
EU Commissioner Valdis Dombrovskis said the incidents were not a coincidence:
“All information available so far seems to indicate that this has been a deliberate act, deliberate damage which was created. So from the EU Commission side obviously we are in contact with member states and we will support any investigation aimed at getting the full clarity and information on who did what, and also on the further steps to increase our resilience of energy security. It's clear that any deliberate disruption of the EU energy infrastructure is completely unacceptable and it will be met with a robust and united response.”
The pipelines have been flashpoints in the escalating energy war between Europe and Moscow since Russia’s invasion of Ukraine – which has sent gas prices soaring.
However, it remained unclear if the leaks were caused by foul play.
Russia’s embassy in Denmark issued a statement saying that any sabotage on Nord Stream's pipelines was an attack on both Russia's and Europe's energy security.
The EU has not named a potential perpetrator or suggested a reason for the suspected sabotage.
