I don’t understand how shit like this does not already warrant to enact article 5. Russia sends literal sabotage units to us to physically destroy shit, as well as assassination squads to murder people. Those are and should be seen as direct attacks to our countries.

Because nobody wants to start WWIII. And you shouldn’t want that too.

Sink one Russian warship per attack. Russia doesnt seem to mind losing ships.

What would be the benefit of open war against Russia, especially if NATO were to start it? I see absolutely nothing.

There’s a lot of room for additional sanctions against Russia too. The EU is still importing fossil gas and nuclear fuel, for example. Countries like Cyprus and the UK can probably still freeze additional Russian funds. […]

The best sanctions we could impose is a complete shutdown of all of Russia’s Internet access. You’d see massive reduction in disinformation across the web.

How would NATO start it after Russia repeatedly attacked us?!

Russia emits misinformation, Russia attacks through Interwebs, Russia employs espionage, Russia sabotages. But Russia has not performed a full-scale military attack on any NATO country. And unless they do, in the eye of any onlooker, NATO would be the one to start the altercation.

Yeah I saw that. I don’t think that’s a “paywall” but a “subscription wall”. It’s not behind a pop-up, its behind a login. I think.

France arrests Ukraine-Russia national with explosives on terror charges - https://www.reuters.com/world/europe/france-arrested-russian-speaker-possession-explosives-near-paris-airport-bfm-tv-2024-06-05/

Not the Le Monde article, but also not paywalled.

Jesus, the only reason they caught him was because he blew himself up making bombs? How many others are out there?

I guess the trope of bomb makers missing fingers in movies is based on reality.

i guess the evidence of massive coordination by Moscow was at the end of the article?

this would be a most flagrant act of war against France if so, no?
