白宮駁斥受美國是北溪破壞案幕後主謀的報導
【摘要2023-02-11.六.自由】
The White House flatly rejected Wednesday
a new report by veteran investigative journalist Seymour Hersh that the US was
behind the sabotage of the Nord Stream gas pipelines last year.
白宮週三斷然駁斥了資深調查記者希摩爾．赫許有關美國是去年破壞北溪天然氣管線案幕後主謀的新報導。
In a self-published report, Hersh wrote
that US Navy divers helped by Norway had planted explosives on the pipelines
running under the Baltic Sea between Russia and Germany last June and detonated
them three months later.
在這份自行刊出的報導中，赫許指去年6月美國海軍潛水員在挪威協助下，對這條在俄羅斯與德國之間的波羅的海水下管線放置炸藥，並在3個月後引爆。
White House National Security Council
spokeswoman Adrienne Watson described the Hersh report, published on his page
on the Substack web service, as "complete fiction."
赫許的報導刊登在他自己的Substack網路服務頁面上，白宮國家安全會議女發言人艾德琳納．華森稱此報導「純屬虛構」。
Hersh said the decision to bomb the
pipelines was made in secret by US President Joe Biden to cut off Moscow’s
ability to earn billions of dollars from natural gas sales to Europe.
赫許說，炸掉這些管線的決定是由美國總統喬．拜登祕密做出，要切斷莫斯科從對歐洲銷售的天然氣賺取數十億美元的能力。
The CIA developed the plan, and under
cover of NATO exercises in June 2022, the Navy divers, with help from Norway,
planted the explosives on the pipelines that could be detonated remotely, Hersh
wrote.（AFP）
