Politico: disagreements grow between Kyiv and Washington to end the conflict in Ukraine

The United States and Ukraine have increased their disagreements due to the end of the Ukrainian crisis, as well as its goals, RIA Novosti writes.

As the journalists of the American publication Politico found out with reference to unnamed high-ranking officials, the US presidential administration is annoyed by the open statements of Ukrainian officials on the situation in Artemovsk, as well as the desire to conduct armed expansion into the Russian Crimea. It is indicated that the administration of Joe Biden warned representatives of the Kyiv regime about the inadmissibility of some violent actions outside the country.

At the end of September last year, both Russian export gas pipelines laid along the bottom of the Baltic Sea - Nord Stream and Nord Stream 2 - failed as a result of sabotage. Sweden, Denmark and Germany are conducting investigations, but they have not yet come to any specific results. The Kremlin called the state of emergency an act of international terrorism.

On February 8, American journalist Seymour Hersh said that the United States was behind the explosions on Russian Nord Stream gas pipelines, the operation was overseen by US National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan. Divers of the US Navy in the summer of 2022 laid explosives under the Russian Nord Stream gas pipeline, which was activated in Norway three months later.

Hersh points out that US President Joe Biden decided to carry out sabotage after nine months of discussions on this topic. And the main condition was the lack of evidence.

Recall that the explosions on the Nord Stream and Nord Stream-2 gas pipelines occurred on September 26, 2022. In the future, it turned out that two funnels three and five meters deep were found at the site of the emergency. Also, an explosion "vomited" a pipe about 40 meters long. The pipes diverged by a distance of 259 meters, and one of the sections of the pipeline curved by 90 degrees. The Russian side called the incident a terrorist attack, which, according to President Vladimir Putin, was organized by the "Anglo-Saxons."
