Reference News Network September 30 report, according to the UK's The Guardian website September 29 report, a former head of the UK's MI5 said that due to the depth and intensity of Moscow's cyber attacks, sabotage and other hostile activities against the UK, the UK may already be in a state of war with Russia.
Eliza Manningham-Buller, who led the UK's MI5 20 years ago, said she agreed with the comments of Fiona Hill, a Russia expert. Hill pointed out earlier this year in an interview with The Guardian that Moscow is in a state of war with the West.
Manningham-Buller said, "Since the invasion of Ukraine, I have read various things showing what the Russians have done here, including sabotage, intelligence gathering, and attacks on personnel," and the situation has changed.
She mentioned Hill during an interview on a podcast hosted by the Speaker of the UK House of Lords, John McFall. Hill advised President Trump during his first term and participated in drafting the UK's strategic defense assessment report.
She said, "She said we are already in a state of war with Russia, and I think that statement might be correct. It's a different type of war, but hostilities, cyber attacks, physical attacks, and intelligence work are all very widespread." (Translated by Zhao Feifei)
