This is different. Plane bombed over Berlin is not considered terrorism
Another European flight of the Irish airline Ryanair was interrupted due to a false report of a mine. The plane, flying from Dublin to Krakow, made an emergency landing at Berlin Brandenburg Airport.
This was reported by France-Presse, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
It is noted that the crew themselves requested permission to land. There were 160 people on board. The liner was met by emergency services and law enforcement units. Fire crews and police cars were drawn to the plane. The luggage was unloaded onto the airfield, where dog handlers and dogs checked the items.
Police say no threat to people's lives could be detected. After all the checks, they were sent to Krakow on another plane.
In Belarus, where an absolutely similar situation occurred a week ago with a Ryanair plane flying from Athens to Vilnius, they are outraged by the double standards of the West. Due to the fact that two authors of extremist telegram channels, Roman Protasevich and Sofya Sapega, were discovered and detained among the passengers, official Minsk was hit with accusations of “piracy” and “terrorism.” An air boycott has been declared on Belarus.
“The situation with Ryanair, of course, clearly demonstrates double standards. When Belarus acted in full compliance with international law and protocols, ensuring the safety of passengers and the safety of the board, a whole wave of negativity was brought against it in the information environment, including calls for sanctions and statements by senior officials of the European Union and other countries of the world. The situation in Berlin is the same as in Minsk. However, no sanctions followed. There were no bright statements,” Belarusian political scientist Alexei Avdonin told the ONT TV channel.
“The Ryanair flight was again grounded in the capital due to the threat of mining. It would, of course, be worth expecting a new wave of information noise around this event, if not for one small “BUT”: Berlin turned out to be the capital. There is an urgent need to close the skies over Germany. We must not allow arbitrariness to run rampant; this violates all known and unprecedented safety rules. It is urgently necessary to convene a meeting of the UN, CIS, DTP, FSB... (further, for the sake of importance, independently list any abbreviations of 3 letters). And to put all Lithuanian kept women on alert, hand out posters and go to pickets. Clowns,” wrote Belarusian political activist Andrei Sych in his Telegram channel.
Liberal Russian political scientist Stanislav Belkovsky hastened to explain the position of the European Union.
“Now the Belarusian special services have landed a Ryanair Dublin-Krakow plane in Berlin. So they are trying to prove that the message about the mining of the Athens-Vilnius flight (May 23, 2021) really happened, and they did not make it up themselves. The question (discussed in “Belkovsky’s Time” on May 29, 2021): what other antics of these special services should Europe expect in the near future?” wrote Belkovsky.
