New York Senate Candidate Calls for International Investigation into Nord Stream Pipeline Attack
Independent US Senate candidate for New York, Diane Sayre, is urging for an international investigation and trial in the US Congress regarding the terrorist attack on the Nord Stream pipelines that occurred a year ago. Sayre believes it is crucial to conduct a thorough investigation into the incident.
Support for an International Investigation
When asked about the need for an international investigation, Sayre responded affirmatively, stating that it is absolutely necessary to look into the matter. She believes that an international inquiry will provide a comprehensive understanding of the incident.
US Congress Involvement and Public Demand
Sayre also emphasizes the importance of an investigation by the US Congress. She asserts that it is the responsibility of the American people to demand action from their representatives.

Furthermore, Sayre highlights the shifting sentiment among members of Congress regarding the provision of weapons to Ukraine. The pressure from voters has led to a reevaluation of such decisions.
Media Coverage and International Repercussions
Sayre suggests that increased coverage of the incident by renowned media outlets such as CNN and The New York Times would be beneficial. She believes that extensive media coverage can generate public interest and contribute to a comprehensive investigation.
The explosions that occurred on September 26, 2022, damaged the Nord Stream and Nord Stream 2 gas pipelines, causing unprecedented harm. Germany, Denmark, and Sweden have not ruled out the possibility of targeted acts of sabotage.
Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Seymour Hersh published an investigation revealing that explosive devices were planted under the pipelines in June 2022. Hersh claims that the operation was authorized by US President Joe Biden after months of discussions with national security officials. However, the Pentagon denies any involvement in the attack.
The Russian Prosecutor General’s Office has initiated a case regarding the international terrorist act. German media also periodically reports on the potential impact of the explosions on Ukrainian affairs.
