Russian Embassy Responds to Claims of a Halted Spy Operation in Sweden
The Russian embassy in Stockholm rejected Swedish media reports claiming a Russian spy operation aimed at damaging Sweden's reputation has been halted, stating no concrete evidence supports the allegations.
Embassy's statement
The embassy noted that Swedish outlets offered no verifiable facts and had not contacted Swedish authorities on the matter. It added that there is nothing to comment on substantively, and that the notion of fabricated Russian threats is being actively promoted in Swedish public discourse.
Background
On August 10, Sweden's security service announced it had stopped a Russian espionage operation intended to tarnish Sweden's image, saying Russian intelligence officers recruited an agent to obtain sensitive information.
Russia maintains its denial while Sweden continues investigations to prevent similar activities.
