RUSSIAN PLOT FOILED: CEO RHEINMETALL NOT LIQUIDATION Vlog 741: War in Ukraine
Video Summary
The plot to assassinate the CEO of German armor manufacturer Rheinmetall, a crucial supplier of artillery shells to Ukraine, has been foiled by US and German intelligence. The attempted assassination highlights the ongoing “shadow war” Russia is waging against European Union and US interests, particularly in relation to Ukrainian security. The company is set to open a tank factory in Ukraine, which will produce 400 tanks per year, and is seen as a show of support for Ukraine’s defense.
Rheinmetall’s CEO, Armenia Paper, has stated that the company is not afraid of Russian aggression, as they believe it is crucial to help free nations fight for their security. The Ukrainian government also believes that giving up nuclear weapons in the 1994 Budapest Memorandum was a mistake, as it left the country vulnerable to Russian aggression.
It is crucial to recognize that Russia’s actions are not just isolated incidents, but rather a deliberate strategy to undermine European and US security. The plot was professionally developed, unlike typical Russian-backed assassinations, and is part of a broader pattern of state-sponsored terrorism. The West must acknowledge the reality of a war against Russia and its allies, rather than downplaying the threat. The Ukrainian government and its allies must prioritize strengthening military capabilities to counter Russian aggression.
