Russia calls for cooperation with the United Nations in investigation of Northern Stream pipelines’ explosion

In a draft resolution submitted to the UN Security Council on Saturday, Russia called on all countries, including Denmark, Sweden and Germany, to cooperate with the United Nations in the investigation of the explosions that affected the North Stream gas pipelines.

RIA Novosti reported that the Russian draft resolution calls on UN member states, including those conducting their own investigations, to cooperate fully and exchange information with the committee.

The project also calls on the UN Secretary-General to establish an independent international committee of inquiry to conduct a comprehensive, transparent and independent international investigation into all aspects of the sabotage work on the gas pipelines “North Stream 1, North Stream 2”, as well as identifying the perpetrators, responsible parties, organizers and accomplices.

The Secretary-General of the United Nations is granted 30 days to submit a report to the Security Council on the methods of establishing the aforementioned committee.

A vote on the draft resolution is scheduled for next Monday.
