Russia seems to have houses close to military facilities bought. "Telegraph" researches reveal a pattern that can become a huge risk. A scenario is particularly threatening.
NATO member states, including Sweden, Norway, and Lithuania, view Russian-owned homes concentrated near major military bases as a security threat and are taking action. There is a trend toward tightening real estate transaction regulations to prepare for the possibility that they could be used as a Trojan horse.
Russian-owned villas and holiday homes could be used by the Kremlin for spying, sabotage, and even drone strikes on NATO bases, sources warn The Daily Telegraph. Concerns surround properties in Sweden, Norway, and Lithuania. The Swedish government has announced efforts to seize one such property, located right next to a strategic military base.
Russia would use a network of holiday homes and other properties in the Baltic region and Scandinavian countries to expand its hybrid war operations against the West.
