    Ukraine denies involvement in Nord Stream damage

    An advisor to Volodymyr Zelenskyy has denied Ukraine's involvement in explosions which damaged the Nord Stream 2 gas pipeline.

    The multi-billion dollar Nord Stream 1 and 2 pipelines transporting gas under the Baltic Sea were ruptured by a series of explosions in September 2022.

    The blasts drastically reduced Russia's ability to use its energy exports as leverage over Europe, with the damaged pipeline previously carrying 40 per cent of Moscow's gas exports to the continent.

    "Such an act can only be carried out with extensive technical and financial resources ... and who possessed all this at the time of the bombing? Only Russia," Mykhailo Podolyak said.

    Polish prosecutors said on Wednesday that Poland had received a European arrest warrant issued by Berlin in connection with the attack, but the suspect, a Ukrainian man named as Volodymyr Z, had already left Poland.
