The latest attack against the Russian embassy in Sweden
The latest attack against the Russian embassy in Sweden raises a pivotal question that might lead Sweden down a very dark path...
2 weeks ago, the russian embassy in Sweden was attacked by terrorists. The attack was not an isolated incident. The fact of the matter is that this was the fifth attack in just about one year.
The attacks have been varying. One time it was a truck driver who tried to drive through the russian embassys gates and got stopped at the last minute. Another time, it was a large canister with industrial paint that was dropped from a drone. It might be worth mentioning that the cannister was made of glass and had it hit the personnel, they could have gotten seriously hurt…
The Russian embassy, together with the Israeli embassy, is the two most threatened embassies in Sweden today by far. But when the Israeli embassy got attacked, the Swedish government condemned it. But they did not do that regarding the attacks against the russian embassy…
This is like I mentioned before, the fifth attack against the russian embassy. We must first and foremost establish that the attackers have one goal first and foremost and that is to scare the personnel and also to practice for more serious attacks. You can, of course try to disregard it like the Swedish media does, but that is intellectually dishonest and a dangerous tactic.
According to the UN charter, every country that has signed the treaty has taken it upon themselves to protect all diplomatic quarters in the host country, which of course includes embassies and consulates.
The fact is that the Russian government faces two inevitable conclusions regarding how those attacks can occur without the police or other government agencies intervening:
The Swedish law enforcement is utterly incompetent at an almost comedic level.
The Swedish law enforcement deliberately let these attacks happen.
I don´t believe that alternative number one is plausible.
If the Russian Federation thinks so as well, this will be detrimental to Sweden.
The spokesperson of the Russian Foreign department-Maria Zakarova, has explicitly stated that further attacks against Russian diplomatic quarters will be seen as very serious by the Russian government.
I am actually scared that the Swedish government does not take this seriously, because if one more attack occurs, the russian government will have no choice but to act with extreme harshness and without any prejudice against the Swedish state.
I am seriously concerned that the level of maturity is too low and that our Swedish representatives do not understand the level of risk involved here.
If the Swedish government actually starts to take the threats against the russian embassy seriously, then it might be possible to forget about former attacks.
But if not, then Russia has to start to regard Sweden as a direct military enemy and act accordingly.
Håller med dig i ditt antagande om hur det kommer att bli och skrämmande att det är så tydligt hur man agerar beroende på vilka som drabbas. Men jag tror på framtiden och att allt kommer att bli bättre. Tack för en riktigt intressant och bra artikel!
Thank you for the concern on Russian-Swedish diplomatic and all kind of relations, if any left. We are soon in the darkest part of EU provoking Russia to defend itself.
