Title: Russia Summons Ambassadors of Germany, Denmark, and Sweden Over Nord Stream Pipeline Explosions

The Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs summoned the ambassadors of Germany, Sweden, and Denmark today, Thursday, to protest what it described as the "lack of results" in a special investigation into the explosions that damaged the Nord Stream gas pipelines in September. In a statement, the Russian Foreign Ministry accused the three countries of deliberately delaying the investigation and attempting to conceal those responsible for the explosions. It expressed dissatisfaction with what it termed the ambiguous nature of the investigation and its refusal to engage with Russia. The ministry commented, "We have noted that these countries are not interested in determining the true circumstances of this sabotage. On the contrary, they are delaying efforts and trying to cover up the impact and the real perpetrators of the crime, who we believe are well-known countries." It added, "It is no coincidence that implausible 'leaked' narratives about what happened are being circulated by the media in an attempt to cloud the situation." The ministry confirmed that Moscow would continue to push for an objective investigation conducted by Germany, Denmark, and Sweden, with Russian participation. Several unexplained underwater explosions caused damage to the Nord Stream 1 and Nord Stream 2 pipelines, which connect Russia and Germany via the Baltic Sea.
