Give off, was clearly the americas
Lol, have they seen our navy in recent years? They've mothballed it for the last 12 years
British government and army are just as evil as and wicked as Russia only difference is British make sure thay its all brushed under the carpet then act like they don't intimidate or provoke
Come on you England!!!😁😁😁🇬🇧
If the Russian Defence Ministry believes that the British Navy blew up the Nord Stream pipeline, it shows that they don't know the British at all. It just isn't something they would do!
Wouldn’t put it past our government they are scum
If this was the UK Navy then it was under instruction from the NATO/UN/Club of Rome/Trilateral Commission/Bildeberg Group/WEF – let's not forget who's directing this pantomime.
We're already on our 3rd Prime Minister ATM, no time for fireworks
I wish this were true, finally I could start to respect my country again.
Why am i not surprised.
Meanwhile, the Russian navy got some more "Sevastopol submarines" delivered today.
The little mate pulling faces from between the legs of the school bully.
Don't doubt it one bit the Russians could have turned it off its they're gas it's clearly the British following American orders
It was Soap McTavish.
No it was the butler in the conservatory with the spanner
Lie thet saying is USA.
UK hearing the accusation: “What?!”
Well, Germany said they cant disclose the bomber for Security Reasons. They'd be all over it if it was Russia
Peace ✌️
I'll check with actual reliable sources first to check Russia really are saying it and what evidence they have.
Russia are likely telling the truth though, they ain't the liars in this war.
Now what will it be, Russia's turn, 😳🙄 "an eye 👁️ for an eye 👁️"? There are a lot of British cables out there to look after. Big Problem they got into themselves. How much money 💵 🤑 will be spent to guard them instead of feeding their population. You can't guard every inch of the sea's and land.
No they didn't! This is propaganda to divert away from the USA who even ADMITTED they did it!
AS IF WE TAKE RUSSIA'S COMMENTS SERIOUSLY?
Wasn't it Joseph Goebbels who had bodies piled in the centre of Dresden after a raid and claimed that the allies had killed 100,000 people which caused conflict between the UK and the USA over the issue, when in reality it was 25,000, which shows that propaganda is a powerful tool and something that the Russians are very good at.
That's so coward
FFS first it was America now it's the UK looks like Russia is just throwing name's out in the hope that it's not linked to themselves
Is this a joke? I think the Royal Navy have better things to do with their time than to be blowing up gas lines. This is an attempt to either draw us in with a retaliation or take yhe heat off other areas. This is the Royal Navy we are talking about here pound for pound and man for man the best Navy in the world. We stick strictly to the rules of engagement, unlike or Russian friends who bomb and shsll hospitals, schools and power stations. All of which are considered against the rules of engagement and thus war crimes. Lies, lies and more lies. Nazi morons! Infact, i would go as far as to say they are worse than the Nazi's. The Nazi party had nothing to really compare themselves with. This makes the russian establishment worse… they know exactly how horrendous the Nazi's could be as they cried about it at the end of WW2. Hypocrites!!!
I wouldnt be surprised if it was us and we are trying to blame Russia just because its plausible
Not affriad of this fool
Any excuse by Russia. No sense of responsibility. It is time that Russia learns a hard lesson.
nothing surprises me anymore.just when you think things are peek crazy it steps up and finds another gear.
I wouldn't put it past the British military i have zero respect for the tin brainwashed soldiers of Britain
As always USA & their Loyal Crime in Partner in Eutthe UK could & have done it.
And they blamed America a few weeks ago 🤡
Let's be honest, it was the USA. Sweden has realised this and chose to keep the findings secret 'as a matter of national security'. If it was Russia then they would have had zero qualms to say. Interesting how the US gas market is reporting record high profits.
Don’t blame us, it was Liz’s fault
We all know it was the UK who destroyed the pipe line.
🇬🇧 lmao 🤣 what a 🔔 end
It wernt us man stop lying😂😂
Why would Russia blow up its own pipeline when they could as easily turn it off from their end?
UK invaded Iraq on a flagrant lie. They are capable of lying again.
The fact the UK is grandstanding their position early (accusations in all effect) points to some guilt.
