Possible sabatoge in natural gas explosion cutting off Georgia.

MOSCOW, Russia (CNN) -- Georgia's president Sunday questioned the timing of explosions in Russia that cut off electricity and natural gas service to his country in the middle of one of the coldest winters on record in the Caucasus nation.

Russia is investigating the explosions as a criminal act, according to Viktor Beltsov, a spokesman for the Emergency Situations Ministry.

But Georgian President Mikhail Saakashvili stopped short of accusing Russia of orchestrating the blasts.

"They hit us at exactly the right moment," he told CNN. "I'm not accusing anybody. I'm just asking questions. It looks dubious at the very least."

Saakashvili said Russian officials have tendered veiled threats in the past, and given the natural gas crisis created in Ukraine earlier this month when Russia temporarily shut off the flow, the president said it "just looks fishy."
