@Maximil86429959@mickyfreckle You're actually even more fucking deluded than I first thought. 20 or 30 years people like you were locked away , now you special retards are on the Internet
The German government has concluded that Russia was responsible for the hybrid attack at Leipzig Airport on August 4.
After consultations in the National Security Council and Federal Cabinet, Berlin says intelligence from German and partner services, combined with police investigations and the pattern of the operation, establishes Russian responsibility.
German authorities say the operation involved a drone configuration, various components, explosives and ignition technology previously seen in other Russian hybrid operations connected to Russia’s war against Ukraine.
The equipment and coordination were described as professional, requiring significant technical expertise and organizational effort. The people who carried out the final stage are described as low-level agents while intelligence indicates that individuals involved acted on behalf of Russian state authorities.
Berlin says Leipzig fits a wider pattern of Russian hybrid operations across Europe involving espionage, surveillance, sabotage, disinformation and preparations for attacks.
Germany does not consider Leipzig an isolated incident. The government expects Germany to remain a target of further Russian hybrid attacks and says there is a willingness to use such operations to cause even greater damage.
But Berlin says the attack confirms the high threat level Germany had already identified. In June, Germany raised its assessment from an “abstract threat” to a “high threat” and increased security measures.
The government also made one message very clear:
"We are not at war, but we are the daily target of hybrid warfare."
Berlin says Russia’s actions are part of a broader campaign of destabilization, disinformation, threats, sabotage and aggression against Europe.
Germany says it does not want relations with Russia to deteriorate further and still wants an end to the war in Ukraine, a restoration of peace in Europe and eventually a constructive relationship with Moscow.
But Berlin says Russia has shown no willingness to change course.
Germany will therefore respond:
🇷🇺 The Russian General Consulate in Bonn will close on September 18.
This is one of Russia’s remaining diplomatic missions in Germany. Russia currently has one embassy and one active general consulate in the country. Germany previously ordered the closure of four of Russia’s five consulates in May 2023 after Moscow restricted the number of German diplomatic and cultural personnel allowed to operate in Russia.
🇷🇺 The agreement concerning the Russian House in Berlin will be terminated.
The Russisches Haus is a large Russian state-run cultural center on Friedrichstraße, operated by
Rossotrudnichestvo, an agency under Russia’s Foreign Ministry that has been sanctioned by the EU since 2022.
The institution has faced years of criticism over Kremlin propaganda and Russian influence operations. But this year, French authorities went further, describing the Russian House in a French Interior Ministry document as a cover used by Russian intelligence services. The French assessment also said the institution was intended to influence the Russian diaspora and promote support for Moscow’s policies.
🇪🇺 Germany will propose new EU sanctions against Russian individuals connected to hybrid attacks.
🛂 Entry controls for Russian citizens will be tightened.
🚢 Germany will increase pressure on Russia’s so-called shadow fleet.
Germany will further strengthen its intelligence capabilities and add personnel.
🇩🇪 Germany will continue strengthening its defence capabilities through NATO.
🇺🇦 Germany will continue its civilian and military support for Ukraine.
The Russian ambassador is also being summoned to the German Foreign Ministry, with the meeting taking place as the government made the announcement.
Berlin says it is coordinating closely with NATO and EU partners and has secured their solidarity.
The German government’s message is that Leipzig is part of a wider Russian hybrid threat against Germany and Europe and that Berlin intends to strengthen its security, support Ukraine and respond decisively to further attacks.
Germany says it will not be intimidated or divided by Russia’s attacks.
