– We can ascertain that there have been detonations at Nord Stream 1 and 2 in the Swedish economic zone, which have caused extensive damage to the gas pipelines. That’s what chamber lawyer Mats Ljungqvist says in a press release. Discovery made A crime scene investigation has made it possible to strengthen suspicions of serious sabotage. A seizure must also be made at the crime scene. – These must now be examined. The case is very sensitive, says Ljungqvist, who leads the investigation. – It is a serious incident, and it is a strong message that the authorities involved are taking care of their respective tasks in the best possible way, he says further. In the course of the investigation, questions have been raised as to whether Sweden has the right to take legal action on the spot, whether Sweden should have so-called jurisdiction over the area. Ljungqvist believes that Sweden has that. – With the support of the UN Convention on the Law of the Sea, Sweden has jurisdiction over the parts of the Nord Stream that are within the Swedish economic zone, says Mats Ljungqvist.
