Foreign minister says the attack on Milrem Robotics was ‘an act of sabotage ordered by the special services of the Russian Federation’
Lithuania’s foreign minister Kęstutis Budrys also offered Lithuania’s solidarity with Estonia, saying “Russia’s fingerprints are all over,” and warning that “Russia’s hostile activities do not stop at Ukraine’s border.”
“Russia’s fingerprints are all over: the Estonian authorities have confirmed that the 15 August arson attack against the Estonian defence company Milrem Robotics in Tallinn was an act of sabotage ordered by Russian security services. The perpetrators were identified and detained. The political responsibility leads to Moscow.
Russia’s hostile activities do not stop at Ukraine’s borders. They target our security, our resilience, and our resolve.
“Based on the information available to KAPO, the modus operandi of the Milrem attack is consistent with other acts of sabotage carried out in Europe on behalf of Russia. KAPO assesses that the attack is directly attributable to the Russian Federation.
Defence industry companies, particularly those involved in drone technology, as well as organisations supporting Ukraine, have been among the targets of Russian security services since the beginning of Russia’s war of aggression against Ukraine.
