This saying was also utilised in the book, ‘The Kremlin Letter’, which is a very good spy novel.

US (with eastern european allies?) did destroy the NS1/NS2 pipeline though, right? No reason for Russia to do this, nor European Gas dependants approaching winter.
Just following the money…and the geo-politics…
i don’t see how sabotaging a shut and not-opening pipeline benefits the us or the nordics. there is no gas flowing, and the europeans said it was not going to be opened. maybe that is not true, and maybe the us wanted to make sure.
Putin has scaled back, or ceased, delivery of gas as punishment to the ‘West’ for their support of Ukraine and has been trying to increase that pressure, however, the constant claims of non-delivery due to ‘maintenance’ was wearing thin.
If the Russians walked away from the contract they would be on the hook for millions in penalty clauses. Because the pipeline was destroyed by ‘unknown’ actors, Russia is not contracttorally obliged to pay any compensation.

Looks like there is competition among underlings to catch Putin’s eye. Success might bring promotion into the kleptoccracy.

Putin can’t beat the Ukrainians through conventional warfare, so has obviously gone back to sneak attacks and sabotage of the allies, doing to the rest of Europe what he is doing to the Ukraine already – attacking energy and other infrastructures. He cheated at the Olympics, sent assassins into Britain on a couple of occasions and was a fan of Trump – what else can you expect from tricky Dicky (sorry Vlad)?

The russian ”mastermind” in action is a sight to behold. One russian caught in the act of sabotage and the game is on.

If a submarine had entered the baltic via the kattegat nato would know about it. I would hope so anyway.

What a bunch of petty things chosen. If this is Russia and China working to bring down the West they seem pretty tame.

And this helps Putin’s war in Ukraine how?
He’s crazy.
