MOSCOW, Feb. 7 (Xinhua) -- Sweden's findings on the Nord Stream pipeline explosions are noteworthy and Moscow will continue to monitor future developments in the matter, Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov said Wednesday.

Peskov's comments came after the Swedish prosecution authority dropped its investigation into the Nord Stream gas pipeline explosions, without any result.

"Russia has repeatedly requested information about the progress of the investigation ... however, it was denied access to this information," Peskov said. "Therefore, we will monitor how and where any investigative actions will be carried out next, and make decisions accordingly."

The spokesperson noted that Russia will watch how Germany will react to the investigation.

Besides Sweden's recently concluded probe into the Nord Stream blasts, two other investigations into the issue are currently being conducted separately by Germany and Denmark.

A Danish police representative told Sputnik on Wednesday that Denmark's investigation into the explosions has not been formally concluded yet, but they "expect to be able to issue a statement sometime in the near future." Meanwhile, German government spokesman Steffen Hebestreit told reporters that Germany is "still very interested in this crime being solved."

The Nord Stream pipelines, which transported natural gas from Russia to European markets via Germany, were severely damaged in September 2022 after blasts in the Baltic Sea. Enditem
