Vladimir Putin is capable of carrying out “mass casualty attacks” on NATO territory. This has been warned by Keir Giles, a leading expert on Russia. These statements came after the Polish Prime Minister, Donald Tuskwill accuse Russia of planning “acts of sabotage around the world,” including “acts of air terrorism.”
According to the media “Russia’s relations with the West are at their lowest point since the Cold War.” “Russian officials have repeatedly hinted that Moscow could orchestrate attacks against NATO members, in response to his support for Ukraine throughout the war.”
Likewise, European intelligence agencies “revealed in November that Russia was suspected of orchestrating a plot to place incendiary devices in packages aboard cargo planes bound for the United States and elsewhere“confirms the publication. Still, the Kremlin has denied any involvement, and has rejected Western claims that Russia sponsored acts of sabotage and attacks in Europe.
“Moscow can carry out retaliation for Western decisions that have caused Russian setbacks in the war in Ukraine“, says Giles in his statements. Furthermore, “we have seen a pattern of attacks that appears to be reconnaissance and probing. for a future combination of specific objectives”.
For his part, Donald Trump has stated on multiple occasions that he intends to end the war in Ukraine. Although, if finally the president-elect of the United States does not “play into Putin’s hands”“we could expect the attack campaign to extend to North America as well.”
This Thursday, in statements to the media, the Kremlin spokesman, Dmitry Peskovstated that the accusations against Russia “are totally unfounded.” “It often even tries to maintain leadership in this area compared to other European countries.”
