From the Kremlin, another stern warning: we will not tolerate this

“What the Czechs are doing at the moment, how the Bulgarians are contributing to them, how the Baltic states and others are contributing to the notorious solidarity – we will not tolerate this, and we will not tolerate it, we are clearly demonstrating it,” Vladimir representative Putin.

“As Putin said, this will be the case now and in the future, but Russia’s desire for good relations remains paramount,” Peskov added.

Bulgarian prosecutors said on Wednesday they had linked six former Russian nationals in Bulgaria to four explosions at an arms depot in the country between 2011 and 2015. The bombings at the warehouses used by Emco, led by Emiliano Gebrevo, a businessman from the Bulgarian arms industry, did not injure people. In April 2015, E. Gebrevas, his son and the director of his company survived a poisoning attempt.

Prosecutors now say they have “particularly reasonable suspicions” that the attack and explosions may be related.

The indictment also draws attention to “serious crimes in other countries”, indirectly mentioning the bombings at a Czech arms depot in 2014 and the 2018 attempt in the UK to poison former double agent Sergei Skripal.

Last week, the Czech government accused the Russian military intelligence agency GRU in 2014 of stabbing a weapons depot in the east of the country. This has caused a crisis in relations with Russia, denying any contribution to the explosion.

At the request of the Czech Republic to support the members of the European Union in a diplomatic dispute with Moscow, the Baltic states and some other states joined in solidarity by sending Russian diplomats. Moscow responded by similar means.
