NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg said that all factors currently indicate that the accident at the

Nord Stream 1 and Nord Stream 2 pipelines

was caused by deliberate sabotage.

The British publication Reuters writes about it.

"All currently available information indicates that this is the result of deliberate, reckless and irresponsible acts of sabotage," he said.

The head of the Alliance added that a deliberate attack on the infrastructure of the allies would be met with a decisive response, but he did not specify what exactly.

"As allies, we have committed to prepare for, deter, and defend against coercive energy and other hybrid tactics by state and non-state actors. Any deliberate attack on critical allied infrastructure will be met with a unified and decisive response." - he said.

We will remind, 

on September 26, the mass media reported about the accident on the "North Stream-2" gas pipeline.

According to journalists, a sharp drop in pressure was recorded on one of the object's lines.

After Nord Stream-2, another Russian gas pipeline had an accident.

A decrease in pressure was also recorded on both threads of Nord Stream-1.

After accidents on Russian gas pipelines, Denmark informed about gas pollution of the Baltic Sea.

The German authorities do not rule out that the accidents on the Nord Streams could have occurred as a result of planned sabotage.

Sweden reported the fourth gas leak from the Nord Stream and Nord Stream 2 gas pipelines.

Coast Guard vessels are near the site of the leak, and the investigation is ongoing.
