Swedish Prime Minister Magdalena Andersson on Monday said that the country won't share findings of its probe into the explosions of Nord Stream 1 and 2 gas pipelines with Russian authorities. Speaking to reporters, Andersson said the details of the investigation were confidential. "In Sweden, our preliminary investigations are confidential, and that, of course, also applies in this case." However, she added that Russian authorities and vessels were free to sail to the sites of the explosion as the crime scene cordon was lifted. "The Swedish economic zone is not a territory that Sweden disposes of. We have lifted the cordons now and then it is also possible for other ships to stay in the area, that is how the rules work," said Andersson.

"There should really be an investigation. Naturally, with the participation of Russia," Russian deputy foreign minister Sergei Vershinin was quoted as saying by state news agencies. Meanwhile, the Swedish foreign ministry informed that it had received a letter from Russian Prime Minister Mikhail Mishustin, putting forth the same request.
