It would be naive to assume that an island this big (4 hectares) with its valuable species of wood separated all by itself from Russian territory (Narvskoe Reservoir area), crossed state border and moved to a country allied with aggressive NATO bloc. Unlike some media, we are not so naive as to justify a full-scale seizure of Russian territory by natural disasters.
We are persuaded that the island's drift to Estonia is a result of a devious, insolent provocation of Estonian and Western secret services. This is elementary. By night a group of divers stealthily crawled under the island and installed equipment for its artificial migration or destroyed natural link between layer of soil and the bottom of the reservoir. They cut the binding cords with special diamond scissors.
NATO forces have long dreamt of having such a comfortable, such a strategically priceless bridgehead near Russian territory. We can only guess how many thousand dollars did Estonian spy agency spend on this move.
If Russia does not take adequate measures, soon just like that, cogs and bricks, spy-divers will drive more and more Russian islands abroad. Our authorities' nonchalance is striking! A character from Ivan Vasilievich Changes His Profession comes to mind: "Kemska region, take it, take it..." What an outrage!
In our opinion, it is necessary to strictly warn Estonia that such actions are intolerable and to enquire about all the details from NATO divers using glorious Russia underwater fleet. Russia must demand from Estonia that she admits a special committee to the stolen island, so that our specialists establish what mechanisms were used for this diversion and examine the island's territory for secret NATO military objects. We call for decisive and severe action.
Not an inch of Russian soil to NATO bloc.
