Russian First Deputy Representative to the UN Dmitry Polyansky said on Saturday that Russia is requesting that a new meeting of the UN Security Council (UNSC) be held to address the sabotage of the Nord Stream pipeline.

"We have requested a new open meeting of the UN Security Council on undermining the Nord Stream for July 11. We will deal another blow to the West in terms of sufficient attention getting paid to the investigation of this crime in Denmark, Germany, and Sweden and that international efforts are not required to find the perpetrators. We asked the British Chairmanship to invite representatives of these three countries to report," Polyansky said on Telegram.  

In February, veteran US investigative journalist Seymour Hersh reported that with Norway's assistance, the United States was behind the operation to bomb the pipelines.

Back then, the White House described Hersh's report, which cited an unnamed source, as "complete fiction".

On March 8, Kremlin Spokesperson Dmitry Peskov told Sputnik that media reports about Nord Stream sabotage are part of a coordinated spread of disinformation and an attempt to push attention away from the real perpetrators.

The Kremlin wonders how US officials that media reports cite can assume anything about the attacks without an investigation, the Russian Spokesperson said.

Similarly, Russian Foreign Ministry Spokesperson Maria Zakharova said that the Nord Stream sabotage leaks to Western media are constructed to hinder any legal investigation and divert the audience's attention.

On her Telegram channel, Zakharova emphasized that the Western governments engaged in the incident should respond to the formal demands made by Moscow and take into account the findings of the journalistic investigation conducted by Seymour Hersh.

He called for an investigation into the Nord Stream attacks; one where Russia would be a participant in the probe.
