Why not Ukrainian?
I don't understand why wouldn't they want to perform this sabotage against their open enemies? Even openly?
I'm wondering why this didn't happen sooner.
- lm28469 4y agoUkraine is still pumping Russian gas to Europe through their own pipeline and are being paid by Russia for it They could sabotage their own if they really wanted to, or just switch it off.
- XorNot 4y agoBecause Ukraine isn't going to get caught committing an act of war against NATO in Europe while fighting an existential war for its own existence against Russia while completely dependent on supplies from NATO. The obvious answer here is going to be the correct one: it was Russia. Specifically Putin: Russia can be rebuilt on gas to Europe if it ceases the invasion, but Putin specifically won't survive such an event. Ensuring his potential successor can't "make a deal with the West" is exactly his sort of thinking. With a side benefit of people asking questions like this right now (I mean, this is catastrophic for him long run, but so is the entire war so it's also on brand with his incompetence).
