The war in Eastern Europe: In the shadow of the Russian President’s announcement, Vladimir Putin, that his country will annex four districts in Ukraine to the territory of the Russian Federation, British intelligence reported tonight (between Friday and Saturday) that Russia may carry out space attacks. The British Chief of Defense Staff, Admiral Tony Redkinsent a threatening message in the direction of Russia and said that if it does carry out attacks against satellites, “it will result in a strong reaction from NATO”.
In the meantime, Redkin warned that Russia “might drag” the war to places far from traditional land warfare, as is currently seen on the soil of Ukraine, including underground and space warfare.” Redkin added that “we saw an example of this at the end of last year, when Russia blew up A spaceship in general that created tremendous waste in the entire space. Russia has nuclear capabilities and submarine capabilities.” He also accused President Putin of damaging the Nord Stream pipelines with underwater explosions.
At the same time, Prof. Malcolm Chalmers, deputy director general of the think tank Royal United Services Institute, said that “If Russia destroys satellites, the impact will be felt all over the world.” He added that “Russia can also attack the GPS systems that play a key role in civil and military society all over the world. There may be some disruptions to civil services, such as navigation systems in most of our phones and cars.”

Also, Prof. Chalmers emphasized that “similar to the sabotage of pipelines, the destruction of satellites will not necessarily cause direct casualties, and it is also not an attack on the sovereign territory of one country or another. Therefore, there is a lower chance of provoking a direct Western military response.” However, Admiral Redkin said that “if Russia attacks critical national infrastructure, whether undersea cables or in space, there will be a response from NATO”. May our lives be safe and our economy be protected. We will overcome the pressure that Russia is trying to exert on our lives.”

In a speech to the nation, Putin said that “Citizens of Russia, citizens of Kherson, Lugansk, Zaporizhia and Donetsk, there is a principle that appears in the UN Constitution: the right to self-determination. Citizens of those regions have a basic right to self-determination. This is our land. The victims of the horrifying terror of the Ukrainian regime sitting in Kiev paid with their lives for the right of those regions to return to Russia.”
“These are four regions of Russia. We will not forget those who did not cooperate with the neo-Nazi Ukrainian regime of 2014. In 1991, the leaders of the Communist Party, without asking the people and without holding a referendum, of their own accord sacrificed the Soviet Union, our great country The Soviet Union does not exist and we do not aspire to be there either, but there are millions of people who speak the Russian language, they are Russians who long to return to their homeland,” he emphasized.
