The way it read to me, Ukraine didn't even tell the US about it. Either way, it pretty much discredits the idea that Russia blew up their own pipeline.
Yeah. Intelligence reports never say how they got the info, so we have no choice but to make an inference there, but my reading is that Ukraine was planning it themselves. This also makes the most sense from the Ukrainian POV since the US could've spoiled those plans by alerting Germany etc.
I really doubt the US sent in soldiers close to any front line. Special forces, yes probably (operating under cover), but if uniformed US soldiers got killed in Ukraine and Russia used their deaths for propaganda, that could drag the US directly into the war. Very grave risk for no great benefit. But away from the front lines? Yes, without a doubt.
US could have spoiled the plans by alerting Germany
Germany is a vassal state, and Scholz might even a bigger puppet than Merkel.
After the attack, Scholz and Biden met in DC - and days after both the CIA and the German BND almost simultaneously announced that some random divers with a yacht did it. Most lousy lie ever.
