not sure here -- public officials do get threats and that is serious. Yet the timing and emphasis of this article causes some questions.. Is this at all related to the ongoing negotiations at the World Meteorological Organization over access to data? Wading through the volumes such as WMO-No 15 "Basic Documents" 2021, it seems like the West is trying to reset data access to align with its own military interests, and less the "unique cooperation" founded shortly after World War II and renewed in the 1990s. If a public case is made that "scientists receive threats" while at the negotiating table, US-allies retract previous data sharing agreements.. Is this progress in an age of Climate Change? worse, could it cover some Oil and Gas industry activity in more secrecy for all sides? not fake

You are positing that the UN weather agency is manufacturing abusive tweets towards meteorologist, who they ostensibly represent, to give western countries an excuse to refuse sharing weather data with countries they don't like? ...That doesn't make any sense. Among other things, the article doesn't mention tweets are coming from specific countries, in fact the context seems more local.

To me, questioning if it is "related" implies intent, and "trying" implies an active subversive effort. But if you really mean this is all just a coincidental situation for the WMO to take advantage of... that still doesn't make any sense, because the tweets aren't from a specific country.
