Biden administration 'obliged' to answer if US behind Nord Stream gas leaks: Russia

Quote:
Moscow says the administration of US President Joe Biden is "obliged" to answer if Washington was behind reported gas leaks on the Nord Stream pipelines that run from Russia to Europe.

"Biden is obliged to answer if the question of whether the US carried out its threat," Russia's foreign ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said Wednesday.

"On February 7, 2022, Joe Biden said that Nord Stream would be finished if Russia invaded Ukraine."

Zakharova posted a video of Biden saying "we will bring an end" to Nord Stream 2 if Russian tanks cross Ukraine's border.

"A statement of intent was backed by a promise. We must be responsible for our words...Europe must know the truth," she stressed.

Earlier on Wednesday, the Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said accusations Moscow was behind the gas leaks were "stupid and absurd." He pointed to the "huge profits" for US LNG suppliers who have "increased their supplies by several times."

"They are very interested in getting super-profits in the future," Peskov said.
