So, according to Ambassador Barsky, there's no official information and Thailand is able to 'provide safety

That's all sorted then.

What about the Honorary Consul in Phuket was it who claimed it was he who set the ball rolling by passing on information he received ?

He's just been contradicted by an official Russian diplomat so now does he suffer major loss of face by losing his honorary status ? His 15 minutes may have backfired even if he's 100% correct.

what a hononary consul received in october was just a general warning, after russians started to bomb isis in retaliation for a russian airplain. His job is to issue visas, travel documents and help to russians in emergencies. He has nothing to do with security, not more than installing additional cctv at the consulate and telling local cops and governor about the risk.

what russian security gave to thai was a specific information, but it happen later, sometimes in november. Only on 27.11 it was send for a wider distribution, market as urgent and secret, rather not to police, but thai intelligence. The local police commanders in phuket and pattaya learned about it only from mass media.

as to ambassador, he is a diplomat, he might know a lot, but wouldn't talk publicly.

Where's the tomatoes?

Sorry, meant rocks!

how any ambassador would think and feel, if his country security services are passing secret and urgent info to their thai counterparts, and within a few days this secret is leaked to the press?

it's an obvious, that he is mocking thai government, for what they did - informing terrorists that they are known and giving them time to run away.

in a diplomatic language "We do not have any official information" means, that there is no statement from moscow, and what russian secret service know or what other information ambassador has, is nobody business. If he wants to say something, for example a warning to russian citisens in thailand, the consulate would issue a statement. He doesn't have to say anything to a journalist from the Nation - that's the job of his press secretary.

the whole affair might be just a turf war between thai spooks and cia against russian inteligence.

quite sure, that those 10 isis terrorists had to abandon their plan and are running. The second cell would be taking over the job, and it would take some time

We are all basing our 'shock and awe' on one leaked (routine) document, one of probably dozens of similar alerts that the Thai intelligence community receives every day from national security organizations worldwide.

This sort of communication is a daily event, classified as 'Secret' for various reasons, one of which is that it doesn't create mass hysteria if made public.

It is through this sharing of intelligence that makes the general public safe, or at least safer than they would be without it. People should never ignore this fact.

IMHO, the person who leaked this document, for whatever reason, needs to be locked up for a very long time as he has succeeded in spreading the very reaction that classified documents try to control.
