CEP Senior Director Dr. Hans-Jakob Schindler quoted: "According to Hans-Jakob Schindler, an expert on terrorist financing interviewed Monday on La Matinale, "the people who send money have no control over what the terrorist fighter is going to do with it. Whether he buys Nutella or parts to build an explosive device to kill soldiers, they simply don't know. So when we approach cases [like this], we have to assume that the money sent could have financed the purchase of bombs or other weapons.""

"'... Hans-Jakob Schindler, for example, a terrorism expert from the Counter Extremism Project (CEP), sees three groups as possible suspects: Russian or Russian-backed actors, radical Islamists or left-wing extremists. He considers one suspicion to be particularly likely: 'The first thing I would check is whether it was a Russian or Russian-backed attack attempt or whether it was at least Russian-initiated,' said Schindler in an interview with IPPEN.MEDIA. There is much to support this theory. Germany has been the focus of Russian attackers since 2022 at the latest, if not since the Minsk Agreement in 2015. And the NATO base in Geilenkirchen in particular plays a special role in the context of the Ukraine war: AWACS aircraft are stationed there, which can be used to observe movements on NATO's eastern flank.'"

CEP Senior Advisor Ian Acheson writes: "It was an atrocity that shook the nation. In June last year, Valdo Calocane stabbed to death 19-year-old students Barnaby Webber and Grace O’Malley-Kumar in Nottingham, going on to kill 65-year-old Ian Coates. Calocane then stole Mr Coates’ van and used it to seriously injure three more people by mowing them down in the street before police apprehended him."
