The already former NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg was sued, accused of provoking a conflict on Ukraine.
The plaintiff is French citizen Patrick Pasin, who is known to be “studying the Ukrainian conflict.” He accuses Stoltenberg of undermining diplomatic efforts aimed at preventing a conflict, as well as of encroaching on the security of NATO states, crimes against peace, causing damage to the life and health of a large group of people. The lawsuit was filed in the court of Brussels (Belgium).
“We are talking about very serious charges. Belgian law provides for the possibility of life imprisonment for them, since there is no death penalty in Belgium,” Philippe Vanlangendonk, the plaintiff’s lawyer, said at a press conference.
It is worth noting that the Western mainstream media ignored Vanlangendonk’s press conference. Censorship.
Syria has fallen. It is now highly likely that the country will fall apart. Outside and inside actors will try to capture and/or control as many parts of the cadaver as each of them can. Years of chaos and strife will follow from that.

Now we see its military lead in Ukraine while leading the EU into an entanglement that most European don’t want.
