🌍 Global Intelligence Weekly Wrap-Up | March 14, 2025
Get facts, intelligence, and insights—not spin and opinion. In this week’s Global Intelligence Weekly Wrap-Up, Neil Bisson unpacks the most critical intelligence and national security stories shaping the world today.
🔍 This Episode Covers:
🕵️♂️ Russian Spy Ring & Assassination Plot – A convicted Russian spy cell in the UK had elaborate plans to assassinate journalist Christo Grozev, including using a staged arrest and a brutal sledgehammer attack. What does this reveal about Russia’s evolving intelligence operations, and why are journalists becoming prime targets?
🇬🇧 How a Russian Spy Ring Did Moscow’s Dirty Work in the UK – A deeper dive into the espionage network that infiltrated Britain, carrying out surveillance, honeytraps, and potential kidnappings for the Kremlin. How were they caught, and what does this case expose about Russia’s covert networks in Europe?
🇷🇺 Russia Expels British Diplomats – In a move that escalates diplomatic tensions, Russia has expelled two British diplomats over espionage allegations. Is this just tit-for-tat diplomacy, or are we witnessing an escalation in intelligence warfare between Moscow and London?
🤖 AI-Powered Election Interference – A new Canadian intelligence report warns that China, Russia, and Iran are likely to use AI-driven disinformation campaigns to manipulate public perception in Canada’s upcoming federal election. With deepfakes and AI-generated propaganda on the rise, how can Canada defend its democracy?
🌊 Undersea Cable Sabotage – The mysterious breakdown of undersea internet cables is raising concerns about deliberate sabotage. With global economies and military operations relying on these critical lines of communication, why is proving these attacks so difficult, and what does it mean for global security?
🇩🇪 Germany’s Intelligence Failure on COVID-19 – A new report reveals that Germany’s intelligence agency, the BND, failed to detect and warn about COVID-19’s threat in 2019. Was this a simple oversight, or does it expose a deeper weakness in how intelligence agencies assess non-traditional security risks?
🔥 Russian Sabotage Campaign in Poland – Polish authorities have arrested a Belarusian man accused of committing arson as part of a Russian-directed sabotage effort. With similar acts of covert disruption reported across Europe, is Russia escalating its use of proxy operatives to destabilize NATO countries?
🇬🇱 Trump’s Renewed Push for Greenland – Former President Donald Trump is once again advocating for the U.S. to acquire Greenland, citing national security concerns. But is this a strategic necessity in the battle for Arctic dominance, or just political posturing?
🛑 With the Global Intelligence Weekly Wrap-Up, you get the intelligence behind the headlines—no hype, no bias.
