On October 12th local time, Russian President Putin said at the Russian Energy Week event that the world economy and energy are experiencing a serious crisis. Vandalism in individual countries is part of the crisis.

Putin said the purpose of carrying out terrorist attacks on the "North Stream" natural gas pipeline is to undermine the energy security of the entire continent of Europe and prevent cheap energy. The instructors who destroyed the "North Stream" pipeline attempted to permanently cut off the ties between the Russian Federation and the EU , further weakening Europe. The beneficiaries of the Nord Stream explosion were the United States and countries with alternative supply routes.

Putin said that repairing the "North Stream" is possible, but this only makes sense if the pipeline can continue to operate safely. A branch of " Nordic Stream-2" is still in working state, and Russia is still ready to fulfill its contract to supply energy. Russia is ready to supply more natural gas to Europe during the autumn and winter period, on the EU side.
