Danish arms companies targeted by Moscow

The Danish daily "Berlingske", citing the head of counterintelligence, reported that the local services had detected plans and preparations for Russian sabotage activities in the country, the target of which was mainly companies from the arms industry.

The main goal is to stop specific supplies for Ukrainian defense needs. At the same time, the idea is to intimidate us into stopping supporting Ukrainians and not expanding our own defense potential. The choice of targets and the preparations made are so specific that we found it necessary to inform the public about the existence of a threat that should be taken seriously, said the source of "Berlingske".

He pointed to arson as one of the possible elements of Russian plans. Companies from the arms industry were called on to tighten security measures.

It has been noted that Russia is also trying to recruit "ordinary Danes" into its activities, often without their knowledge that they are working for Moscow.

This may involve, for example, taking photos or video recordings of objects or plants, which can then be used to plan sabotage, explained Emil Graesholm.
