The Ukrainian “agency” simply threw money at the FSB officers and the Russian Federation.
Since 2014, Moscow has paid billions of dollars to set up an agency network of pro-Russian politicians. Only in the end, these “agents” did not give results to the Kremlin, but simply “threw” it for money. This was stated by Bellingcat journalist Hristo Grozev.
He announced the release next week of a joint investigation with The Insider on the creation and financing of FSB politicians in our country. It was these “activists” who were to organize and carry out the coup after the invasion of the Russian occupation forces.
“It's about billions of dollars, not rubles. It has been spent from the 14th year to the present day. It was 150-160 highly paid FSB officers. Each of them had an unlimited budget to recruit Ukrainians of any level. They recruited on paper and then it turned out that … Well, yes, they flew to meet them in Thailand, the Maldives, Cyprus. They spent this money on meetings. They were given cash, “he said.
The result corresponded to the preparation. The agency just didn't work.
“And here even these Ukrainian agents who took the money threw it away. They just threw it away, ”Grozev said.
Grozev clarified that President Zelensky's decree to ban pro-Russian parties was very timely. Because among them were a large number of Kremlin agents.
“We see representatives of these parties, many of them, not all parties, among the assets of this group of 150 FSB members. So obviously these are completely inauthentic parties, they were supervised by the FSB, “he added.
