According to reports, the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) was aware that Ukraine was responsible for the pipeline’s destruction. Despite this, both the CIA and the Biden administration kept the truth hidden from the American public for two years, a revelation that has fueled outrage and demands for accountability.
Mike Benz, an intelligence expert, minced no words in his assessment of the situation: “Again just to remind what giant pieces of sh*t these ppl are, they’re only ‘leaking’ this disinfo now bc Germany just arrested the Ukrainian diver who blew it up & NYT already printed that UKR’s intel is run top-down by the CIA, so Germany knows CIA knew, so CIA has to say this.”
The damning implication here is that while the U.S. government and media outlets feigned ignorance, they were fully aware of the real culprits behind the Nord Stream explosion. This deception has cast a long shadow over the credibility of those involved.
The narrative surrounding the Nord Stream explosion took a dramatic turn in February 2024, when Russian President Vladimir Putin disclosed in an interview with Tucker Carlson that the CIA was behind the pipeline’s destruction. This assertion, while initially met with skepticism, is now gaining traction as new evidence comes to light.
The explosions that rocked the Nord Stream 1 and 2 pipelines registered a 2.3 magnitude on the Richter scale and occurred at a depth of 230 feet in two separate locations, 40 miles apart. Despite promises from German, Danish, and Swedish authorities to investigate the incident thoroughly, official findings have yet to be published. In March 2023, the UN Security Council rejected a joint call by Russia and China for an international probe into the incident, further deepening the mystery and fueling speculation.
Veteran investigative journalist Seymour Hersh published a detailed report in February 2023, outlining how the Biden administration orchestrated the destruction of the Nord Stream pipelines. Hersh’s account, which implicates National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan as the mastermind behind the operation, remains one of the most credible explanations of the event. Hersh alleges that Sullivan instructed the CIA to develop plans to sabotage the pipelines as early as December 2022, months before the Russian invasion of Ukraine.

Hersh’s report was largely ignored or dismissed by mainstream media, which instead focused on speculative stories involving anonymous Ukrainian saboteurs using a sailboat to carry out the attack on the heavily fortified pipelines. However, as new information surfaces, Hersh’s version of events is gaining credibility.
In a follow-up report on the attack’s anniversary, Hersh revealed new details from his intelligence sources about the true motives behind the operation. According to Hersh, the Biden administration’s decision to target the Nord Stream pipelines had little to do with the Ukraine war and everything to do with preventing Germany from falling under Russia’s influence.
“The Biden administration blew up the pipelines, but the action had little to do with winning or stopping the war in Ukraine,” Hersh wrote. “It resulted from fears in the White House that Germany would waver and turn on the flow of Russia gas—and that Germany and then NATO, for economic reasons, would fall under the sway of Russia and its extensive and inexpensive natural resources.”
The operation, Hersh explained, was driven by a neoconservative agenda to keep Germany and the rest of Western Europe economically dependent on the United States and out of Russia’s orbit. This was a calculated move to maintain American dominance in Europe, even at the cost of sabotaging a key ally’s energy supply.
Hersh’s sources further revealed that the attack on Nord Stream was not merely a deterrent against Russia but a strategic blow aimed at weakening Germany’s economy, ensuring it remained aligned with U.S. interests. The covert operation, which involved months of preparation by U.S. Navy divers and Norwegian seamen, was executed under the guise of a routine military exercise in the Baltic Sea.
As the geopolitical fallout continues, the Nord Stream sabotage is emerging as a symbol of the complex and often hidden machinations that define modern international relations. The revelation that the Biden administration, in concert with Ukrainian and CIA operatives, orchestrated the attack on Europe’s energy infrastructure underscores the lengths to which some will go to maintain geopolitical dominance.
The silence from the White House and denials from officials only add to the growing disillusionment among European allies and the American public. As more information comes to light, the Nord Stream affair may well become one of the most controversial episodes in recent history.
