In a statement reported by the Local Denmark newspaper, Danish Foreign Minister Lars Lokke Rasmussen said that Copenhagen expressly forbids Moscow from partaking in the investigation of the Nord Stream pipelines’ explosion. 

The minister contended that Denmark, Sweden, and Germany are committed to the rule of law, so the investigations and consequent results should be trusted thus Russia needn’t be involved, according to the newspaper.

Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova, announcing Moscow’s stance,  described Copenhagen's decision as a "fraud" and "scam". 

"This is a fraud, an absolutely real scam, it's not even a Ponzi scheme, but a cheap trick, which, in my opinion, no one has been buying for a long time, they play it for themselves, but I think the story with Nord Stream will not have such an ending, like many other stories that they bury and clean up, for one simple reason — big money is at stake," she said to Rossiya 1 broadcaster.
