Trump defends Russia over Nord Stream pipeline explosion and hints US was responsible, independent.co.uk

Former president Donald Trump said Russia didn’t blow up the Nord Stream pipelines last year and hinted that the US might be involved in the incident.

”I don’t want to get our country in trouble, so I won’t answer it,” the one-time president told Fox News host Tucker Carlson when asked about the pipeline blasts.
