Seymour Hersh<\/a>:<\/p>\n

In early March, President Biden hosted German Chancellor Olaf Scholz in Washington. The trip included only two public events\u2014a brief pro forma exchange of compliments between Biden and Scholz before the White House press corps, with no questions allowed; and a CNN interview with Scholz by Fareed Zakaria, who did not touch on the pipeline allegations. The chancellor had flown to Washington with no members of the German press on board, no formal dinner scheduled, and the two world leaders were not slated to conduct a press conference, as routinely happens at such high-profile meetings. Instead, it was later reported that Biden and Scholz had an 80-minute meeting, with no aides present for much of the time. There have been no statements or written understandings made public since then by either government, but I was told by someone with access to diplomatic\u00a0intelligence that there was a discussion of the pipeline expos\u00e9\u00a0and, as a result, certain elements in the Central Intelligence Agency were asked to prepare a cover story in collaboration with German intelligence that would provide the American and German press with an alternative version for the destruction of Nord Stream 2<\/span>.\u00a0In the words of the intelligence community, the agency was \u201cto pulse the system\u201d in an effort to discount the claim that Biden had ordered the pipelines\u2019 destruction.<\/p>\n

At this point, it must be noted that Chancellor Scholz, whether or not he was alerted of the destruction of the pipeline in advance\u2014still an open question\u2014has clearly been complicit since last fall in support of the Biden Administration\u2019s cover-up of its operation in the Baltic Sea.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
