The Nord Stream explosions weren’t just about pipelines—they were about power. Now, a new bombshell out of Germany points the finger at the man who could soon challenge Volodymyr Zelensky for Ukraine’s presidency: Valery Zaluzhny.
According to German outlet Die Welt, investigators believe the former Ukrainian Commander-in-Chief commissioned the 2022 attacks that crippled Europe’s energy artery. This isn’t some fringe theory—officials reportedly say Zaluzhny gave the order to a Ukrainian crew aboard the now-infamous yacht Andromeda.
But here’s where it gets messy. Zaluzhny, fired by Zelensky earlier this year and shipped off as ambassador to London, is now rumored to be quietly building a campaign machine to take his former boss’s job. And with these allegations surfacing, the plot reads less like geopolitics and more like a political thriller.
Western media previously hinted that investigators already knew the full identities of the saboteurs—Ukrainian nationals with alleged ties to Zaluzhny. Some reports even claimed he was so impressed by the Nord Stream operation that he considered expanding attacks on Russia’s TurkStream pipeline in the Black Sea. He denied it, of course. But denials don’t make the story disappear.
Here’s the kicker: not everyone is buying it. Some German experts argue the saboteurs’ behavior was too sloppy to be the work of professionals. Meanwhile, Kremlin insiders claim it’s absurd to think Ukrainians alone pulled it off—pointing instead to Western special forces, with Britain and the U.S. topping the suspect list.
So, what’s really going on? Is this a smear campaign against Zelensky’s strongest rival, timed perfectly as Ukraine teeters on the edge of political change? Or has Europe’s biggest energy sabotage truly been traced back to the man who could be Ukraine’s next president?
One thing is certain: whoever ordered the Nord Stream blasts wasn’t just attacking pipelines—they were reshaping global alliances. And if the trail leads to Zaluzhny, the West may have been bankrolling a man who played both sides of the board.
