COPENHAGEN, Oct. 7, 2024 (EIRNS)—The major Danish daily Politiken had an article on the occasion of the second anniversary of the Nord Stream sabotage on Sept. 26, 2022, revealing a possible U.S. military connection, which German media and RT have picked up. Politiken reporter Hans Davidsen-Nielsen, who has been following this story, went to Christiansø, the easternmost part of Denmark in the Baltic Sea to the east of Bornholm, and close to the sites of the Nord Stream explosions. There, Davidsen-Nielsen interviewed the harbor director John Anker Nielsen.
His article reports, according to a machine translation:
“For the first few days, the harbor master said he was ‘not allowed to say a thing.’ But today, John Anker Nielsen can reveal that four or five days before the Nord Stream blasts, he was out with the rescue service on Christiansø, because there were some ships with switched-off radios [transponders]. They turned out to be American naval vessels, and when the rescue service approached, they were told by Naval Command to turn back. Therefore, the harbor master has some faith in the theory that American star journalist Seymour Hersh, among others, has put forward without any documentation: that the U.S. was behind the sabotage. The Americans have these small unmanned submarines that can solve any task, John Anker Nielsen has been told. The harbor master’s family has lived on Christiansø for seven generations, and he knows all about the weather and wind conditions in the Baltic Sea. Against this background, he doesn’t give much credence to the theory of a yacht and some Ukrainians diving down to 80 meters.”
