EU accuses Russia of state terrorism and promises to respond "firmly" after Leipzig episode

CNN Portugal2 September 2026 at 09:01

The European Union accused Russia of practicing State terrorism and promised to respond "firmly" after an episode that occurred in Leipzig. Several countries have already begun taking measures in reaction to this situation, with Portugal being one of the countries involved in these responses. The accusation arises in a context of growing tension between the EU and Russia, with European authorities considering Russian actions as a serious violation of international norms. The Portuguese government will likely align its measures with the decisions made at the European level, within the framework of a coordinated response among the Member States.
