Suspicions of Russian espionage in Poland are becoming increasingly widespread. After the Polish Eurocorps general had to resign on Wednesday, investigations into a Russian spy network have now become known.
Poland’s counterintelligence agency ABW announced a corresponding operation on Thursday. A spokesperson for the Polish agency said on the online service The operation was therefore carried out together with services from other countries, including the Czech Republic.
Connection to recalled general?
Only on Wednesday did Poland surprise with the sudden move of the Eurocorps commander to Strasbourg. Lieutenant General Jaroslaw Gromadzinski was ordered to return to his home country with immediate effect. Details about the investigation are not yet known.
Defense Minister Wladyslaw Kosiniak-Kamysz said the allies had been informed of the recall “with appropriate prior notice.” “It is not an accusation against anyone if you perform such a procedure, but the step of dismissal is necessary.” Now it is a matter of clarifying the matter before a final decision can be made – in the future, General Piotr Blazeusz will lead the corps.
The Czech Republic has exposed a propaganda network
On Wednesday, the government in Prague announced that the Czech secret service had discovered a Moscow-funded propaganda network. The network used the news site ‘Voice of Europe’ to stir up sentiment in the European Union against Ukraine’s support in the war against Russia.
“Serious consequences for safety”
As Czech Prime Minister Petr Fiala explained, the Czech Security Information Service (BIS) found that the pro-Russian network was undertaking activities that “have serious consequences for the security of the Czech Republic and the EU.”
The group had agitated on EU territory “against the territorial integrity, sovereignty and independence of Ukraine,” Fiala told reporters. The group’s activities also reached the European Parliament, Fiala said, without giving further details.
