Russia says will request UN Security Council meeting over Nord Stream leaks

Russia on Wednesday said it will ask for the United Nations Security Council to convene after Moscow denied allegations it was behind leaks at the Nord Stream pipelines between Russia and Germany.

“Russia intends to convene an official meeting of the UN Security Council in connection with provocations regarding Nord Stream 1 and Nord Stream 2 pipelines,” Russian foreign ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said in a statement on social media.
