Hunt for opposition figures: the Kremlin is engaging in open terrorism in Europe
Shortly before the killing of Semyon Skrepetsky, Lithuanian police prevented a series of assassination attempts in Europe. They were being prepared by a network of hired killers linked to Russian special services.
Among the targets were Bashkir nationalist Ruslan Gabbasov and Lithuanian activist Valdas Bartkevicius. Their murders were prevented thanks to the arrest of the killers and their accomplices.
It cannot be ruled out that this terrorist cell was not the only one. Other groups linked to the preparation of political assassinations, terrorist attacks, and sabotage could be operating in Europe.
The last public performance by artist Semyon Skrepetsky took place a few days ago in Berlin — there he swept the street with a Russian flag and threw it into a trash bin near the Russian embassy.

The murder took place in the city of Biała Podlaska, near the border with Belarus, where a refugee camp is located.
After moving from Russia, Skrepetsky passed through this center and remained living in the city with his family.
Several people may have been involved in the attack. The taxi driver who drove them was detained near the Belarusian consulate in the city.
Earlier, Skrepetsky took part in an action at the Russian embassy in Berlin. The artist came wearing bast shoes, with a Russian flag tied to his trousers, and carrying a painting depicting Stalin “feeding” Putin.
He also created satirical paintings in which he mocked Kadyrov, Putin, and Russian officials.
