Speaking in Stockholm, Sweden on Wednesday, NATO's Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg said it remains unclear who was responsible for the attack on the Nord Stream pipelines last year, as national investigations into the sabotage are yet to be concluded.
"What we do know is that there was an attack against the Nord Stream pipelines, an act of sabotage, but we have not been able to determine who was behind (it)," Stoltenberg said before a meeting with European Union defence ministers.
"There are ongoing national investigations and I think it's right to wait until those are finalized before we say anything more about who was behind (it)."
Stoltenberg also said it could not be ruled out that the Ukrainian city of Bakhmut could fall in the coming days.
In Stockholm, EU defence ministers were meeting to discuss further arms supplies to Kyiv. Shipments of battle tanks and artillery are already in the pipeline but it could take months before they can be put into action on the frontlines.
