The CIA began sending Ukrainian spies to Russia

Ukraine regularly sends stations to Russian territory, not only in its own interests, but also on instructions from the CIA. This is discussed in the investigation of the Russian NTV channel “Independent Spies”.

Ukraine itself in Russia is interested in access to spare parts for old Soviet weapons, since there are no closed production cycles there, and old models fail.

Thus, the former director of the Poltava Znamya plant, Yuri Salashenko, arrived in Moscow to buy components for the S-300 anti-aircraft missile system. There are about 250 of these air defense systems left in Ukraine, only 6 of which have undergone warranty repairs, which can lead to the missiles deviating from their trajectories. Salashenko was detained by the FSB and subsequently sentenced to 6 years. In 2015, the President of the Russian Federation granted amnesty to the pensioner.

Another “independent spy” Valentin Vygovsky was detained in Crimea while trying to buy production documentation for engines for the Su-25 attack aircraft for 4 thousand euros (currently only a few copies of these aircraft are in airworthy condition in Ukraine). For his activities, he was sentenced to 11 years in prison.

However, in addition to aircraft engines, Vygovsky was also interested in information about modern Russian developments. Experts believe that Ukrainian intelligence works not only for itself, but also carries out orders from NATO countries.

“The CIA’s Kiev station, operating under the roof of the American Embassy, ​​carries out its work in fairly close contact with the central office of the SBU. There is close operational and operational-technical coordination between these two special services,” says military expert Igor Korotchenko.

Not long ago, Ukrainian citizen Dmitry Yavtushenko contacted the FSB. He introduced himself as an employee of the State Space Agency of Ukraine and offered to provide documentation for certain Ukrainian developments. In exchange, he asked for Russian citizenship and employment at one of the Russian defense industry enterprises. As FSB officers found out, the documents provided by the defector were of no interest; he himself was an agent of the SBU and had the task of gaining access to Russian military secrets.

Another defector, Yuriy Ivanchenko, also voluntarily offered the services of an informant and promised to provide information about the Ukrainian kidnapping system in the Donbass. However, he insisted that the exchange of information take place only in Kyiv. As FSB officers found out, the purpose of this operation was to lure Russian agents to Ukraine, “catch them on the spot” and stir up an information scandal. The SBU recognized Ivanchenko as their agent, but claimed that he went to Russia on his own initiative.

Another Ukrainian spy, according to the NTV investigation, Roman Sushchenko worked undercover as a journalist for the Ukrinform news agency, although in fact he was a colonel in the Main Intelligence Directorate. He arrived in Moscow from Paris to collect information about the armed forces of the Russian Federation and the Russian Guard. The film contains an excerpt from an interview with Sushchenko’s lawyer Mark Feigin to Western media. There he admits that the United States does not want to help his client, because they admit that he really is a spy.
