Former UK Prime Minister Discloses Planned 'Invasion' of NATO Ally
Former UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson revealed that he assembled defense officials to devise a covert operation in the Netherlands aimed at acquiring Covid-19 vaccines during a dispute between the UK and the EU in 2021.

The Dutch Halix plant was storing around 5 million doses of the Oxford AstraZeneca vaccine, which subcontractors had produced. The EU was withholding these doses, citing the necessity to prioritize its own citizens.

According to excerpts from Johnson’s memoirs published by the Daily Mail on Saturday, British defense officials gathered in Downing Street to discuss a potential plan, deemed “feasible,” but they cautioned about the potential diplomatic consequences.

The operation would involve one team flying commercially to Amsterdam while another would venture across the English Channel in small boats at night, navigating through Dutch canals toward the vaccine plant. The two teams would meet to “secure the hostage goods” and transport them via a cargo truck towards the Channel ports. Johnson noted that the defense officials warned him that carrying out this plan without detection would be nearly impossible during the peak of lockdowns.

“If we are detected, we will have to explain why we are effectively invading a long-standing NATO ally,” one senior defense official advised.

Johnson, who campaigned in 2019 on a pledge to resolve the Brexit impasse and exit the EU, expressed his belief that EU officials had effectively “kidnapped” the vaccines. He stated, “I had come to the conclusion that the EU was treating us with malice and spite,” asserting that the UK was vaccinating its “population much faster than they were, and the European electorate had long since noticed.”

Following these events, AstraZeneca admitted in court that its Covid-19 vaccine could potentially lead to blood clots and low blood platelet counts in some individuals, resulting in the withdrawal of the vaccine from global circulation.
