Former employee of the UK Foreign Intelligence Service MI6 Christopher Stil stated that Russia believes in his ability to ruin the European Union (EU), in an interview with Sky News TV channel.
According to the former British intelligence officer, Moscow believes that it can impact through Eastern European countries, where Russia “sympathizes governments”, as well as through the extreme left and right parties in Western European countries. “They think that if something is beneficial to us, then it does not meet their interests, and if something is beneficial to them, it does not meet our interests,” he summarized.
Styl stressed that “such a mentality and philosophy leads to serious problems and serious threats to our integrity.” According to him, in the Russian government there are “serious people” who believe that Russia and the United Kingdom are “in a state of war”. However, British politicians do not want to recognize this and deal with this that “represents a great problem,” a former intelligence officer was presented.
In addition, Briton said that he had evidence of “hostile actions” of Russia against the UK. They concern, in particular, Brexit and the referendum on Independence of Scotland. However, concrete facts did not led.
Earlier, Christopher Stil again tried to accuse the former US President Donald Trump in Russia. With such accusations, he has already performed in 2016.
