Wouldn't that count as an act of war against NATO? If that's actually what happened, nobody would admit because the endgame is catastrophically bad.

- Semaphor 4y agoYeah, exactly, that’s what my paraphrased comment was about.
- jemmyw 4y agoWhen you consider the other things that have been going on it would be but Russia is going to make sure they have a chain of deniability. Would the West go to war over something that doesn't cause mass public outage and they can't pin on Russia with a high degree of certainty? I doubt it. Actually whoever did it it seems like the best course of action for Europe is to not talk about it. Russia, USA, Ukrainian terrorists it doesn't really matter.
- ianburrell 4y agoI’m not sure that Nord Stream attack would count as attack against NATO member since the explosions were in international waters. OTOH, the pipeline ends in Germany and is owned by multinational group. But nobody was killed. I think it isn’t enough to require NATO response. It could be used if NATO wanted to escalate but it would be weak reason. But would be good propaganda. Which means that if the US knew, they would probably announce it.
