According to CCTV News, on August 20, local time, Dmitry Polyansky, the acting ambassador of the Russian Permanent Mission to the United Nations, called on Germany to share its investigation into the sabotage of the Nord Stream pipeline. Polyansky again expressed doubts about reports that a Ukrainian group had sabotaged the Nord Stream pipeline, calling it a "plot that only exists in Hollywood blockbusters."

Polyansky's appeal and questioning were directed at the latest investigation. German and American media recently broke the news that the latest German investigation showed that the sabotage of the Nord Stream pipeline was carried out by a Ukrainian gang. Russia believes that the United States is trying to shift all the responsibility for the Nord Stream explosion to Ukraine and has formally asked Germany to investigate the Nord Stream explosion.

Germany and Poland dispute over Nord Stream investigation progress

According to reports, German prosecutors issued a "European arrest warrant" in June, asking Poland to help arrest a Ukrainian suspect who was believed to be in Poland at the time. However, Polish prosecutors said that the suspect had left Poland and returned to Ukraine in early July.

In this regard, Mieszko Pawlak, head of international policy affairs in the Polish presidential office, told Polish media that such claims were "groundless." Polish prosecutors also said that the suspect was able to freely enter and leave Poland and Ukraine because the German side did not provide the suspect's full name and did not enter his name into the wanted persons database.

This incident has led to tensions between Germany and Poland. Some media quoted the former head of the German intelligence agency, Henning, as saying that he believed that Ukraine's attack on the Nord Stream pipeline had received support from Poland and that Germany should consider claiming compensation from the two countries.
