This isn’t just a sneaky operation; it’s a deliberate attempt to inflict harm, plain and simple. It’s terrorism, and it’s happening on European and NATO soil.

The audacity of such actions, including potential plots to target American airplanes, really does beg the question: how much further must this escalate before it’s recognized for what it is – a blatant act of war?
Poland, Romania foil Russian exploding parcels plot, Warsaw says, and the situation is further complicated by the fact that those arrested or detained are reportedly Ukrainian. This can’t be easily dismissed as some misguided prank. It reeks of state-sponsored activity, a tactic where a proxy carries out the dirty work, allowing the instigator plausible deniability. If the proxies are caught, the orchestrators can simply shrug and say, “It wasn’t us.” It is all very underhanded.

Many measures have already been deployed and there are measures that can be taken, such as banning Russian citizens from entering the EU.
