German investigators believe Volodymyr Z was a member of a team that in September 2022 planted explosive devices on the pipeline route carrying natural gas from Russia to Germany, German media reported on Wednesday. German law does not allow publication of the suspect’s surname.

The Polish prosecutor’s office confirmed on Wednesday that it had received a German arrest warrant for a Ukrainian man who is a suspect in the Nord Stream attack named “Volodymyr Z”.

This is just too funny of a coincidence.

    They go after Ukraine because they can’t go after the US. Everyone knows who really did it and people have been saying from the start that the US would start blaming all this shit on Ukraine.

      That one is one of my favorites.

      Assuming that Russia would somehow benefit from cutting off the gas supply, why wouldn’t they just…turn it off on their end? If they really wanted to make it permanent, why not destroy it on their end? Traveling out of their own territory just to blow up the pipeline in a high risk underwater covert ops mission in enemy territory as what…an elaborate false flag?

    In his free time, Volodymyr Zelenskyy is an Olympic-medalling free diver, underwater bomb expert, and Polish resident who likes to swim in the middle of the Baltic Sea.

    I had to blink my eyes a few times to make sure this wasn’t an onion article. In any case, this is pretty bold for Germany, let’s see if anything comes of it.

    I love the comments on reddit about this: “Ukraine didn’t do it and even if they did it’s a good thing!” One comment said “Germany has a lot to answer for.” lol

    I don’t understand. Why do they think this is something that only one man has done? Why are there not any more suspects?

      They don’t think it was one guy; they say he was a member of a team that did it. If you can ID one guy but not the others, you go after the guy you know about until you can figure out who else was involved.
