Tapaus #MattiSaarelainen. Jos ihminen pelaa Venäjän pussiin systemaattisesti ja vuosien ajan, yleensä ajatellaan että taustalla on taloudellinen hyöty. Se toki on mahdollista, mutta syitä voi olla myös muita, alla niistä lisää. (1/x) 🧵 #Venäjä #turpo
Saarelaisen tapauksessa on syytä myös kysyä, onko Saarelaisella kiristämiseen kelpaavaa materiaalia suomalaisista virkamiehistä tai vaikka ulkomaisista merkkihenkilöistä.Saarelainen on saanut operoida niin pitkään ja hänen toimiaan on salailtu. (2/x)
Peittely voi johtua myös mainehaitan pelosta tai sitten Saarelaisella on ollut jotain annettavaa vastalahjaksi.
Venäjän kelkkaan joutuneiden henkilöiden motiiveja:
- kompromatti eli kiristysmateriaali. (3/x)
>> Saarelaisen ahdisteluhistoria voi viitata siihen. Venäjä on hyvä kompromatin keräämisessä, joko todellisen tai valheellisen. Virossa jäi kiinni vakooja, jota oli kiristetty valheellisen raiskaussyytöksen avulla. Lisää: hs.fi/sunnuntai/art-… (4/x)
- Addiktiot ja niiden seuraukset, kuten pelivelat
- Henkilön tarve tuntea olevansa erityinen, merkityksellinen ja poikkeuksellinen. Venäjä on hyvä löytämään tällaisia henkilöitä. Yllättävän yleinen motiivi. (5/x)
- Syvä pettymys niitä instituutioita kohtaan, joita on palvellut. Kosto ja kauna siis. Myös yleinen motiivi.
- Kaikki edellä mainittu, mutta koskien henkilölle tärkeää ihmistä, lähipiiriä.
- Ja aina toki löytyy hyödyllisiä idiootteja. (6/x)
- Ideologiset syyt - kyseessä voi olla myös henkilön ihan oma ideologia.
- Yleisesti ottaen: vain kiristystapauksissa ihminen tuntee toimivansa väärin. Suurin osa kätyreistä ajattelee toimivansa syystä tai toisesta oikein. (7/x)
- Taloudellinen hyöty on ensisijainen motiivi harvemmin kuin arvaisi. (8/x) End of 🧵

Why am I not surprised? Of course there's a connection to the #Russia'n propaganda professionals behind the Quran-burning project in Sweden. (1/x) 🧵#Nato #Ukraine is.fi/ulkomaat/art-2…
When #Finland decided to join NATO, we had numerous headlines worried about possible cyber attacks or hybrid operations against Finland. It was like citizens and tabloids were certain that something like that would happen. (2/x)
When nothing happened last year, it was considered as a sign of Russian weakness: the propaganda front had collapsed just like the Russian military front in Ukraine. (3/x)

About terrorist #bombings by #Russia
1) RU's main tool of influence is spreading terror and fear. The goal is to influence policies in different countries. In #Ukraine they try to affect the conduct of the Ukrainian government. (1/x) 🧵
2) Ukraine is becoming the most experienced nation in dealing with this terror tool. Russian intimidation is not making them scared, but more resistant.
Note: They already had #Chernobyl. They've also experienced a politically motivated genocide, #Holodomor. (2/x)
>>Ukrainians have plenty to teach to their fellow Europeans about how to deal with Russian intimidation. Let's learn from them! (3/x)

Some of you have wondered, why an earth would Russia destroy its own infra #nordstream. The question itself is the answer: all eye balls on the #gaspipe and national security > the attention is drawn to something else than Ukraine. Besides: (1/x) 🧵
- If a country is willing to kill it's own citizens the way #Russia does, why infra would be some special exception? (2/x)
- If #Putin is ok with using terrorist attacks against Russia's own citizens, why infra would be such an impossible idea? Remember how he rose to power? By blowing up apartment buildings and claiming it was a terrorist attack.(3/x)

About "referendums" in #Ukraine. Many have asked, why #Russia even makes the effort to stage "#referendums", which look so fake to any Western country. But let's go back a bit and look at the #Baltic states under Soviet occupation.(1/x) 🧵
- In Baltic states we know this "referendum"-play very well: the USSR occupied Baltic states through performances that bears similarities to these "referendums". (2/x)
- As a result in my textbooks in #Finland there was no word about occupation, but I was told how Balts "joined" happily to the family of Soviet republics. This is what Finnish curriculum taught at school a decade after decade.(3/x)

In March I understood that the invasion might lead to the end of #Russia'n Federation. Since that I haven't seen signs suggesting this scenario wouldn't be possible. But is the West prepared for the possible dissolution of the federation and its consequences? #Venäjä (1/x) 🧵
- If the Kremlin understands the collapse might be a possibility, they might find themselves in #China's pocket. That's not good for the West and this also might lead to lifting the sanctions > the rule of tyranny in Russia continues. (2/x)
- There's no empire that would've given up its expansive and colonial ideas willingly. In Europe the former empires chose the path of the EU. So, it's not given that former colonial powers choose the bad path for the future. (3/x)
