Recently, there has been an active spread of accusations against Ukraine regarding its involvement in the sabotage of the Nord Stream 2 pipeline which occurred in September 2022. However, an analysis of all the available facts indicates that these accusations lack any basis and are part of a broader disinformation campaign conducted by Russia.

Accusations against Ukraine could be part of a deliberate disinformation campaign aimed at discrediting the country in the eyes of the international community and reducing Western military and political support. Russian information channels frequently disseminate false or distorted information to create doubts about the legitimacy of Ukraine’s actions and those of its allies. For instance, immediately after the sabotage, campaigns began spreading unverified information about a supposed Ukrainian involvement, which was most likely part of a “false flag operation” strategy often used to obscure the real perpetrators of an attack.

Different media outlets from diverse countries present mutually exclusive versions of events, which only heightens the suspicion of manipulation. Some reports mention alleged evidence of Ukrainian involvement, while others point to possible Russian participation. This inconsistency and constant changes in versions highlight the fact that the accusations may be part of targeted information attacks designed to mislead the public and discredit Ukraine on the international stage.

Russia has repeatedly used Gazprom to apply political pressure on Europe, and the sabotage of pipelines could be another element of this pressure. Previously, Russia has cut off gas supplies to Europe to achieve political concessions, and the Nord Stream 2 sabotage might be part of a broader strategy to increase Europe’s energy dependency and weaken its ability to support Ukraine. This could also create disruption in energy markets and distract from military actions in Ukraine.

Despite numerous statements and different theories, no investigation conducted in Western Europe has found evidence to accuse Ukraine of involvement in the sabotage. Specifically, investigations in Denmark and Sweden did not uncover evidence pointing to Ukraine’s participation. Western countries conducting their own investigations have also failed to find convincing evidence supporting the Ukrainian involvement theory, casting doubt on all accusations propagated by Russian propaganda. International investigative teams, including those working under the auspices of the UN or other authoritative organisations, have not presented evidence indicating Ukraine’s involvement.

Ukraine has consistently denied any involvement in the incident. Ukrainian officials, including President Volodymyr Zelensky, have repeatedly emphasised that such actions are contrary to Ukraine’s interests and bring no benefit to the country. There is no evidence to support the theory of Ukraine’s participation in the sabotage. As Ukraine’s presidential advisor Mykhailo Podolyak stated, such actions could only be carried out with significant technical and financial resources, which were only available to Russia at that time.

The accusations against Ukraine regarding the Nord Stream 2 sabotage appear baseless and are most likely part of a broader Russian disinformation campaign aimed at undermining international support for Ukraine. It is important to maintain a critical approach to information, especially in such a tense geopolitical situation, and not to succumb to the influence of unverified data spread with the intent of disinformation and the manipulation of public opinion.
