In particular, it is about post -Soviet countries where Russia has absolutely no legal jurisdiction. Moscow wants Russian federal laws in such states to be fully ensured.
"Russian Prosecutor General Igor Krasnov stated on March 31 that Russia would continue to defend its right, contrary to international law, to apply Russian Federal legislation to NATO officials and post -Soviet states for their actions committed in their own countries where Russian courts do not have jurisdiction, Despite the recognition that the prosecution in such cases will be "unrealistic", - the reports said.
The analysts mentioned that the Russian Ministry of Internal Affairs previously wanted a number of NATO officials for the fact that they allegedly violated the laws of the Russian Federation. They were in the territory of their states. All this, is considered in ISW, may indicate that Moscow is conducting an information campaign for future aggression against the Alliance.
