Ukrainian Serhii Kuznetsov has appeared in a German court accused of participating in a plot to destroy the Nord Stream gas pipelines connecting Russia and Germany, BBC News reported. The trial comes four years after the attacks on the Baltic Sea infrastructure.
The pipelines were damaged by explosions in September 2022, becoming a major focus of European energy-security concerns. The allegations against Kuznetsov remain accusations, not a finding of guilt.
The available source summary does not specify the charges, set out the prosecution’s evidence or give Kuznetsov’s response. His nationality alone does not establish involvement by the Ukrainian state.
