Russia has an enormous reason to sabotage NordStream 1 and 2, because russia has contractualized massive amount of gas to sell to Germany and other for decades, it explains why Uniper has to be bailed out. If Gazprom fails to meet its expectations it is liable for a reimbursement so it wants to avoid going to international arbitration that would use all the russian money frozen, so it has organized plausible deniability with the turbine, and now with NS1/NS2, and is currently messing up with the one transiting in ukraine as it is menacing to ban Naftogaz.
