🎙️Comment of the Embassy of Russia in Norway to Aftenposten (September 4, 2026) ❓The Director of the Norwegian Intelligence Service, Nils Andreas Stensønes, has made the following statement to Aftenposten: «Russia seeks to weaken our ability and willingness to support Ukraine. They are attempting to do so through influence operations, cyberattacks and physical attacks. The defence industry is now particularly exposed». Could you please give a short comment regarding these statements? 💬 Answer: Until Mr Stensønes and other representatives of Western governments back up their accusations of our country with specific facts, supported by convincing evidence, we see no point in commenting on the baseless claims they regularly make. 👆🏻We are convinced that their main aim of such statements is to instil fear in their own populations in order to justify the costly militarisation and securitisation of all spheres of society.
