The Kremlin has invented the plot of Britain and Ukraine for the "terrorist attack": why the countries of setting up the Tanker of the Russian Federation

To spread: the Russian external intelligence service has released a new information attack, arguing that British intelligence services are allegedly preparing an "environmental disaster" in international waters.   According to the Telegram channel "Tsaplienko_UKRAINE FIGHTS", the purpose of such sabotage, according to the Russian Federation, is to present the transportation of Russian oil as a threat to world navigation and to force other countries to refuse its purchase.

The report states that London seems to be considering the variants of a tanker accident in a strategically important maritime passage or arson of a vessel in a country friendly to Russia. The statement also mentions Ukraine - performers of a possible terrorist attack, according to Russian intelligence, should become Ukrainian security forces. Information about this false campaign was confirmed at the Center for Combating Misinformation.

They noted that SVR of Russia once again extends untouched accusations of preparing terrorist attacks against Ukraine and its international partners. Similar custom is not news: previously Russian intelligence spread fakes about alleged preparation of a torpedo attack by Ukrainian forces on the American vessel. None of these scenarios have been confirmed.

The CPD emphasized that the purpose of such information operations is to discredit Ukraine and its allies, to justify the consequences of Western sanctions for the shadow fleet of the Russian Federation and to translate responsibility for possible future incidents caused by the technical problems of Russian ships. At the same time, it was, as resembling in the center, that has repeatedly stood in the EU and NATO countries, in particular on the Baltic Sea.

Recall that in July pro-Russian Telegram channels spread the fake about allegedly transfer to the Americans of the grain terminal in the Odessa port, giving it as "external management" of Ukraine. In fact, it is a decision of the Ukrainian Court: investment from the United States returned the Olimpex terminal, which was a pledge on $ 95 million. Former owners from GNT are suspected of disappearing grain, and one of the company's executives has likely ties with Russian business.
