“America’s News HQ” January 25, 2014 featuring Capt. Bob Wells
Posted on January 27, 2014
I was asked to comment on growing Sochi Winter Olympics security concerns and U.S. contingency planning-including the reported movement of U.S. Navy ships this past weekend.
The Core point: Use of US Power to protect our athletes at Sochi is smart-need to quietly increase collaboration/support for the Russian Federation CT efforts
- Prudent for US to plan against a potential impact of terrorist event at Sochi
- Two naval warships off Black Sea for evacuation contingencies a prudent planning move for the 230 athletes and other Americans attending
- Need to take seriously all threats, with the safety and security of all Americans in Sochi seen as taking the “highest priority.”
- More collaboration, cooperation needs to be done supporting the diplomatic security and FBI agent requirements
- More CT cooperation for all to help Russian Federation sharing specific information on terror threats made against the Sochi Olympics
