Denmark has officially closed its investigation into the 2022 explosions that damaged the Nord Stream gas pipelines, following Sweden's lead. Authorities in Denmark have determined that deliberate sabotage took place, but there are not sufficient grounds to pursue a criminal case.
The explosions, which targeted the Nord Stream pipelines designed to transport Russian natural gas to Germany, occurred in international waters within Swedish and Danish economic zones. Both countries conducted extensive investigations, with Sweden pointing to a state actor as the likely culprit.
