Dies this mean **they won’t mind** if Norway summarily executes him?
He’s damn lucky Norway doesn’t execute criminals
What are Russia planning
One of many for sure.
This incident was really bad. He was a bad agent. He had a strong Russian accent. He could not speak any other language than English, despite being offered different interpreters. His cover-story was from Brazil. The Russians used to be so good at spying, and they offer this clown to Norway? Surely, they could have done better? Is it some kind of insult to send a really bad spy to a country? Or, is it some kind of special Russian humor? He also was denied by several universities because he was deemed not useful because he wasn’t actually researching anything with any other university.
