Poland denies involvement in Nord Stream sabotage

WARSAW, Aug 16 (AFP): A Polish deputy prime minister on Friday denied his country's involvement in the sabotage of the Nord Stream gas pipelines in the Baltic Sea in September 2022.
"Poland did not take part in anything. It has to be said clearly that this is a lie," the minister, Krzysztof Gawkowski, told TV channel Polsat News.
Gawkowski was speaking after former German intelligence chief August Hanning, who held the post between 1998 and 2005, accused Poland of working with Ukraine on the sabotage.
Kyiv has also strongly denied any role.
