“Another sabotage attack in Europe. The information that the attackers were again recruited by Russia shows that it is not immune to anything and represents an unprecedented threat to all of us,” the minister’s post reads. “We must continue to defend against Russian sabotage and strengthen cooperation within NATO,” he added.
Lipavský subsequently expressed the full support of the Czech allies, and in the post he identified Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk and Foreign Minister Radoslaw Sikorský.
The outgoing head of Czech diplomacy commented on the sabotage in Poland shortly after Tusk announced that Russia was behind the sabotage. According to him, this recruited two Ukrainians to carry out the sabotage.
The sabotage took place on Sunday evening on the railway line between Warsaw and Lublin, which is a city near the Ukrainian border, through which you go to Ukraine and the aid that Kyiv receives to support its defense against the Russian occupiers also flows into it.
The Russians have been running sabotage all over Europe for several years. For example, in 2014 there were two explosions of ammunition warehouses in Vrbětice in the Czech Republic, which were controlled by the Russian secret services. For further sabotage, the Russians recruited a man from South America who committed an arson attack on public transport buses in Prague last June.
Of course, sabotage also plagues Estonia, Lithuania, Germany and other European countries.
