The Russians did the same in Germany with a DHL warehouse, too. As part of their hybrid warfare, they usually hire locals with the promise of some money.

The evil empire has struck again.
I wonder how many more times Russia has to strike before even the last person realises that the dictator in the Kremlin is not interested in peace.

Research was ongoing for 120 days, and now the conclusion is that the Russian intelligence has something to do with this? The initiators were not even named or to say the number of the so-called “captives” ? How come this is only now posted?

It’s high time for NATO to address hybrid warfare and how to react to it, define escalation levels and appropriate countermeasures.
Cyber, sabotage, disinformation campaigns, political corruption etc etc – for each we need both defensive and offensive options, a “handbook” how to react and escalate, so the enemy knows that there will be a price to pay.
So far, Russia can basically operate in this “grey zone” without any kind of repercussions, which is not sustainable.
Plus, even more critical, is to drastically reduce the visa given to Russian nationals and cut down Russia’s “embassies” in Europe (that are more like operating bases for malign actors) to a bare minimum.

And yet, nothing will be done about it.
