Columbia Professor Jeffrey Sachs testified at the UN yesterday on the need for “the UN Security Council to take up the question of who might have carried out the act, in order to bring the perpetrator to international justice.”
“Only a handful of state-level actors have both the technical capacity and access to the Baltic Sea to have carried out this action,” Sachs noted: Russia, the United States, the United Kingdom, Poland, Norway, Germany, Denmark, and Sweden.
“Sweden has perhaps the most to tell the world about the crime scene,” Sachs said. “Yet instead of sharing this information globally, Sweden has kept the results of its investigation secret from the rest of the world. Sweden has refused to share its findings with Russia, and turned down a joint investigation with Denmark and Germany.”
Sachs’ testimony was especially remarkable because he was the head of the “Harvard boys” who handled Russia policy for the Soros Foundation and Clinton administration in the 1990s, causing economic disaster in post-Soviet Russia with a policy of “shock therapy” which many believe led to the rise of Vladimir Putin.
Speaking on Bloomberg TV in October, Sachs was one of the first prominent voices to state that the US was “probably” behin the Nord Stream attack.
Here is his testimony to the UN Security Council Feb. 22, 2023:
