My gut tells me that Seymour Hersh's bombshell expose on the US being responsible for the destruction of the Nord Stream pipeline (link here) is the reason why. Washington knows that the destruction of this vital Russian piece of infrastructure will be viewed by Kremlin as an act of war, and they are getting ready for any blow-back while not frightening the beejeesus out of the civilian population.
