Russia accused of increasing sabotage against NATO allies

In his 2004 memoir, “My Life,” former US President Bill Clinton said he asked Vladimir Putin if Russia would eventually join NATO. He replied, “I’m not opposed to this idea, but I don’t want his country to line up with a small country.”

Putin’s interest in participating in NATO was genuine, but on the condition that he has a position on par with the powers of the United States and other major NATOs. This is against the charter of the Military Alliance. But President Putin had already come up with the idea of ​​joining the North Atlantic Treaty Agency in a 2000 BBC interview with David Frost. The British journalist asked him about it, and the Russian leader replied, “Why not? I will not rule out such a possibility.” Could everything happening now between Russia and the West, including the former Soviet republic, be able to excuse clichés?

Kremlin’s Disruption Campaign

Today, Guardians released An Exclusive Articles “Previously unreported details and insights reveal how the Kremlin’s sabotage campaign unfolds on the ground and the international efforts to track the networks behind it.” In this article, I illegally crossed Bosnia in November last year by walking for 48 hours across dense, frosty Balkan forests and steep hills from Croatia. European security services accused them of working for GRU, the Russian intelligence agency.

Berazrukavyi is said to be part of a Moscow-funded cell accused of sending parcels with explosives camouflaged as adult toys and cosmetics in European cargo planes, causing fires in three locations. Poland’s intelligence agency has also accused him and his cells of sending packages to Canada and the United States.

The disruptor confesses that they were working for the intelligence of Russia

“Western security officials believe that the explosion zone could lead to plane crashes and massive casualties,” the Guardian said. I added that Arrested in Bosnia and handed over to Poland, Brezlkavi confesses that his criminal colleagues are working for the Russian intelligence news, detailing how their sabotage campaign works.

“In communication with people nearby, Bezrukavi claimed he had been fooled. It was used unknowingly to deliver coordinated packages via telegram messaging apps without understanding their true purpose,” the British news organization said. “The others in the group claimed the same thing.”

The Guardian says they actually spoke to one of the cell members and confirmed the details. “We were used like blind mules,” one of them told the Guardian. “We’ve been set up.”

The suspected GRU is the mastermind

Over the three days of July, European security agencies were shaken by three separate package explosions (each sent from Lithuania) that exploded in Birmingham, England. Leipzig, Germany. The Guardian wrote, near Warsaw, Poland.

Western intelligence agency quickly suspected the GRU was behind these three incidents. This came amid a series of other hostile acts, including arson, cyberattacks, data theft, and targeting submarine cables.

“This was the fourth package sent by another member of Bezrukavyi’s network. This helped the authorities hone in what was going on,” added Guardian. “Unlike others, the package could not explode at a depot in Warsaw, and investigators were able to retrieve it unharmedly and analyze its contents.”

In August 2024, Bezrukavy and another perpetrator sent clothes to packages addressed to fictitious addresses in Washington and Ottawa. The cost of sending these packages was very expensive and made no sense given the content.

So Polish investigators intercepted them but did not discover any explosives, and concluded that it was a dry run to investigate international delivery routes for future Russian operations in North America.

Hidden Russian cell members

The Guardian claims that in order to protect his true identity, he contacted one of the Russian cell members whom they identified as Kirill. He is hidden in third countries other than Europe and Russia.

He revealed details of the parcel shipping to the news outlet. “The packaging looked very random. It’s a Chinese, vibrator, lubricant, cosmetic adult toy. I thought it was pretty worthless shit.”

“It may be true that the purpose of the plot was ominous,” Kirill admitted. “We wanted work that didn’t involve drugs or weapons, but it turned out to be a package to test messy shit.”

Donald’s Task: “Air Terrorism against Airlines”

In January of this year, Polish Prime Minister Donald Tass accused Russia of masterminding global acts, including “air terrorist acts” targeting airlines.

The Kremlin has rejected Western allegations to sponsor sabotage attacks, but said the task could validate the “fear that Russia is planning air-terrorism not only against Poland but also against airlines around the world.”

Western security officials said Russian information is suspected of conspiracy to put burned devices into cargo plane parcels towards North America after such packages were fired in Germany and another package was fired in a British warehouse.

Russia’s aggressive campaign
