Corrupting a MiG-31 pilot armed with Kinzhal hypersonic missiles into defecting, only to then shoot him down near what’ll be NATO’s largest airbase in Europe, risked sparking World War III.
Russia’s Federal Security Service (FSB) accused Ukraine and the UK of plotting a spectacular false flag provocation that could have led to led to war with NATO. According to them, they sought to corrupt a MiG-31 fighter jet pilot armed with Kinzhal hypersonic missiles into defecting, but then he’d be shot down near Romania’s seaside city of Constanta. Importantly, NATO’s largest airbase in Europe is being built nearby, so the incident could have resulted in an unprecedented exchange of hostilities.
This revelation follows Russia’s Foreign Intelligence Service (SVR) warning that false flag provocations were being cooked up in the Baltic and Poland, the purpose of which would be to prompt an escalation of tensions with NATO that the orchestrators expect will end with Russian strategic concessions. In connection with this, they believe that Trump would feel compelled to intervene, whether saber-rattling to the aforementioned end or possibly even authorizing direct US involvement in a “retaliatory strike”.
Of course, it goes without saying that everything could easily spiral out of control into World War III since Russia’s voluntary submission to the West under such coercion can’t be taken for granted, ergo the importance of the FSB thwarting what could have been a false flag provocation for the ages.
