>“We’re seeing sabotage, we’re seeing assassination plots, we’re seeing arson. We’re seeing things that have a cost in human lives,” a senior NATO official told reporters on Tuesday. “I believe very much that we’re seeing a campaign of covert sabotage activities from Russia that have strategic consequences.”
Uh, yeah, they are literally at war.
Is this the next stage of trying to rope NATO into this?
- dralley 2y agoThe quote is regarding operations taking place in Europe, not Ukraine. This kind of thing has been happening for a long time actually. Russia blew up Czech ammunition depots in 2014 (killing two Czechs), tried to poison Bulgarian execs with nerve agents in 2015, etc. But it's getting much bolder and much harder to ignore, as much as Western politicians would like to ignore it.
- morbicer 2y agoI don't follow your line of reasoning. They are in war so we (members of Nato) should dig our heads in the sand or what? As sibling comment says, they are bolder because they feel our reactions are lukewarm.
- qsdf38100 2y agoYes, they are at war, they are all-in, while we are not. Maybe it’s time to consider we are at war too? How long are we going to let them wage information war, sabotage, political interference and corruption against us? They talk on state sponsored TV about nuking London, invading Europe, while we carefully consider whether Ukraine should be allowed to retaliate against Russian air bases that target civilians in purpose? Not to mention they are about to get a Russian asset elected POTUS.
