UNSC to vote on draft resolution on Nord Stream sabotage on Feb 22-24, says Polyansky

International News

The United Nations Security Council will vote on a draft resolution on the Nord Stream gas pipeline blasts on February 22-24, Russian First Deputy Permanent Representative to the UN Dmitry Polyansky said on Saturday.

“We requested a Security Council meeting on the Nord Stream explosions. The exact date has not been confirmed yet but voting on our draft resolution on the matter will be held between Wednesday and Friday,” he wrote on Telegram.

On Friday, Russia presented a draft UNSC resolution on investigating the Nord Stream sabotage, which suggests that the UN secretary general should establish an independent international commission of lawyers to look into the incident.

The text of the document points to the data presented by US journalist Seymour Hersh on February 8 about the US and Norway being behind the attack on Nord Stream.

According to the journalist, the decision to conduct the operation was made by US President Joe Biden personally, following nine months of discussions with White House security specialists.

However, Hersh told the Consortium News portal in an interview on Friday that the current US administration will under no circumstances admit its role in the sabotage of the Nord Stream and Nord Stream 2 pipelines.

“No matter what I write, no matter what specific details I have, this government is never going to admit it,” he told the Consortium News portal in an interview on Friday.

“The most aggressive country right now in the world probably is us,” he said.
