[Global Times Comprehensive Report] The Associated Press reported on the 18th that Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk posted on the social platform X on the 17th: "To all the initiators and supporters of the 'Nord Stream 1' and 'Nord Stream 2' projects: The only thing you should do today is to apologize and remain silent." Some media speculated that this statement might be a response to the accusations against Poland in reports related to the bombing of the Nord Stream pipeline.
According to Polish Radio, Tusk's statement seemed to be directed at the "nonsense" of August Henning, former director of the German Federal Intelligence Service. In an interview with the German newspaper Die Welt on the 15th, Henning said that the attack on the "Nord Stream" gas pipeline must have been supported by Poland, and Germany should consider seeking compensation from Poland and Ukraine. In an interview with the media, Polish Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Digitalization Krzysztof Gawkowski strongly denied Henning's statement that "Poland and Ukraine participated in the destruction of the 'Nord Stream' gas pipeline." Gawkowski said that Henning's remarks "are false information from Russia" aimed at undermining the stability of NATO countries.
Germany's Süddeutsche Zeitung previously reported that the Polish authorities have been unwilling to cooperate with Germany's investigation into the bombing of the Nord Stream pipeline. The report also said that Germany issued an arrest warrant for Ukrainian diver Vladimir Z, a suspect in sabotaging the Nord Stream pipeline, at the end of June, but Poland did not take action. In response, the Polish government said that the man had left Poland before the police took action. (Yan Qing)
