Russia said that the country should be allowed to investigate the destruction of Nord Stream, after Sweden blocked the area around the pipe.

Really need a investigation, of course, with the participation of Russia, Russian Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs Sergei Vershinin said today.

Vershinin made a comment after Sweden considered the leaked area on the Nord Stream pipes as the scene of the case.

Two companies operating Nord Stream pipes on October 4 said they could not check the leak position due to the limited measures set by Danish and Sweden officials.

4 leaked positions on two Nord Stream 1 and Nord Stream 2 pipes, connected to Russia with Germany, were discovered last week.

The UN Security Council on September 30 met with Nord Stream.

The Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said such an investigation needs cooperation between nations.
