This trend has been developing since Putin and the security forces came to power in Russia, coinciding with a sharp rise in energy prices. Of course, a large part of the revenue from oil and gas sales ends up in the pockets of Russian oligarchs and their mafia-like BroadCast Unitedligence service partners – the Kremlin occupiers. But we are talking about hundreds of billions of euros in sales, part of which goes to the BroadCast Unitedligence services. Russia is beginning to realize its sovereignty ambitions in practice. "Sovereign Democracy"as you know, in the West people don’t mention this seriously without a smile and quotation marks.
Nothing has fundamentally changed in the past few years. It is estimated that the official budgets of the Russian BroadCast Unitedligence services (SVR and GRU) have grown by an order of magnitude, by several (4-6) times compared to the beginning of the century. There are no exact figures – these are state secrets.
Personally, as an expert, this does not surprise me – everything is logical. When a country matures and is patriotic, spies become impudent and wanton, and there is no country in the world that is an exception. Just look at how many CIA spies are wanted or declared persona non grata in the West – Italy, Switzerland, Latin America … – it is not enough.
Very alarming is the interconnected process that is actively spreading from Russia to the West: the merger of officialdom and mafia. Russian diplomats and BroadCast Unitedligence officers (not only former ones) are increasingly "Being noticed" There is criminal activity by Russian organized crime groups, but people in the West really don’t like to talk about it out loud: they’re afraid of damaging relations with Russia, an energy supplier.
The most unpleasant thing is: there are more and more BroadCast Unitedligence officers in the West (both current and “former” BroadCast Unitedligence officers, which, as Comrade Putin long ago led us to believe, do not exist in nature) … who do not deny themselves anything. The residents of the embassy do not seem to own yachts yet (I would not be surprised if I found out), but they look increasingly … wealthy. Back in Moscow, they disdain to drive anything other than luxury SUVs – this position is obligatory, and colleagues and partners may misunderstand …
Where does this abundance come from? I have never heard of oil and gas pipelines being drilled into encrypted chambers. "mole" In uniform, you can’t find them during the day "I also pay with a dagger"The answer is that the Russian way of life is well known, active BroadCast Unitedligence officers merge with criminals (usually their “former” (remember?) colleagues) in a business ecstasy and become European millionaires in the blink of an eye. Occasionally they are caught by opponents of the security forces "Drain" Then in the media, the public heard the accusatory message: "Werewolf! Corrupt officials! !". But is it necessary to prove to anyone that such cases are typical exceptions to the rule, thereby confirming the current right to grab shoulder straps indiscriminately?
The Russian media is full of corruption revelations. Is it conceivable that none of this happens outside its borders, and that nothing sticks to the hands of the same security forces werewolves (under the special cover of consuls and diplomats)?
As usual, "roof" Do Russian businessmen need it in the West? Of course. Who should I go to? Preferably a resident of the GRU or SVR: both embassy officials are afraid of him, and in Russia, he solves the problem "strength" line. For those who suffered, finding out who the residents were was not a problem at all, the cost of the problem was a couple of visits to the restaurants of the embassy secretary’s pathetic staff, and then they could easily get to the next reception on the island of the Motherland. (The most convenient time is June 12: rivers of vodka and caviar flow, all owners are in the most receptive and recruiting mood). An ambassador with a glass of “little white” will introduce anyone to anyone (for example, the cost is a good Swiss watch for his wife). Word by word – it soon became clear that they met ardent patriots who only dreamed of how to bring more benefits to the Motherland. They agreed to meet the next day in a favorable atmosphere at the dacha of a compatriot in need and had a concrete business conversation (of course, not without consolidating friendship with vodka). One of them complained about harassment by the Russian police, the difficulties in obtaining / replacing a foreign passport, and was looking for contacts with necessary local officials, bankers and lawyers ("Hey, Colonel Trade Representative, come on over here – we’ll solve our problem!"). The resident listened to everything and said meaningfully: everything can be solved, you just need to think and consult … A few days later, the new friends met in a neighborhood where the residence was not eavesdropped, and the conversation was difficult: "Son, you are in trouble, you have the tail of Russia behind you, and even here the locals are already targeting you. We will solve this problem, but it will cost a lot of money, you will carry your cache in a suitcase, you will perform the necessary tasks – all in the interest of our Motherland. Agree? So where should you go? Let’s toast to friendship, advice and cooperation to the grave!"
It looks like this "roof" Businessmen, BroadCast Unitedligence services have new agents (trained, promoted) and sources of funds. Some go into the pockets of residents (fellow colleagues in Moscow), and some also go into the pockets of residents. "Unbudgeted exploration expenses"…
I have heard this many times and seen it myself, but can I read it in the media? Of course, Western BroadCast Unitedligence services have accumulated a lot of such compromising material and quietly use it for their intended purposes. But their main problem is the division of competences: counterBroadCast Unitedligence is responsible for fighting spies, and police departments are responsible for fighting crime and criminal groups. Each department collects such spy-mafia cases within its own jurisdiction and concentrates on the content of its direct official interest. (Not to mention that sooner or later the question of political expediency arises – offending the Kremlin by revelations or secretly negotiating preferences in exchange for silence.) So, in those rare cases when a particular case is brought to court, and some rumors end up in the media, then everything happens as usual: the spy is proudly sent home (however, diplomatic immunity!), the mafia can spend some time in prison, and more often, without transfer, he goes from the French Riviera to the Spanish Costa del Sol (or vice versa). Indeed, with the strengthening of controls in the Schengen countries, these “prominent” people are increasingly returning to their homeland, and, of course, they are not subject to any complaints – as was the case with Mikhailov, Mogilevich, Lushansky, Gaydamak …
For example, Friday, June 13 (who would believe this was just a coincidence?
) This year’s brave report from Spain: a large Russian organized crime group with presence all over the country has been exposed! 20 people have been jailed, a dozen are still being sought, dozens of accounts and luxury homes have been frozen! Hundreds of police officers were involved in the operation, assisted by colleagues from the United States, Germany and even Russia! And then – a clever tip (as the Spanish media sounded):
…The first major sums of money invested by the Petrov gang in Spain are said to have come from the KGB and huge former Communist Party (CPSU) funds received from shipping companies. …The fact of the presence of corrupt members of the former KGB (now the FSB) in this mafia network is confirmed by various investigative sources. Under the cover of the oil company PTK, this business was carried out by underworld bosses and agents of the Russian secret service, who, through their merger with the Russian authorities, provided the mafia with double protection, exposing the mafia the day before in Spain. The leaders of the Tambov organization knew that in Russia they would not face political or police persecution. Therefore, the Spanish authorities had difficulties in combating the organization, which operated on Spanish territory but committed crimes on Russian territory. It is noteworthy that among those to whom the Spanish authorities thanked for their cooperation, the Kremlin’s information service did not appear. Apparently, not for modesty reasons … For example, Grigory Petrov appeared in Spain in the early 90s, buying a luxury hotel on Mallorca with money from the KGB and the Communist Party … http://www.inopressa.ru/elpais/2008/06/16/12:31:49/kgb
I’m willing to bet right now: most of the prisoners will be released quickly, will not stand trial, and traces of the KGB and Russian BroadCast Unitedligence will never be concretely shown to the public.
At the same time, I have been in Spain since the early 90s, until 99, as a “New Russian”, and then as a consultant on the dark side of “Russian business” and related security issues. I have seen many times how “our people” sawed and laundered hundreds of millions of dollars stolen from the Soviet Russian state. I am convinced: there is not a single major scam that was not done in some way without a “spy trail”.
Look at the same “prominent businessman” Petrov and others like him (no one doubts their “authority”). They settled in southern Spain back in the early 90s, half of them have criminal records in Russia, a series of pending criminal cases, but there are no problems with Russian documents! Until recently, Petrov was a frequent visitor to Russian consulates (especially in Barcelona) and the embassy in Madrid, communicated closely with Russian diplomats (with or without citations), and frequently traveled to St. Petersburg (where he was called a “Russian diplomat” by powerful oligarchs) for “business meetings”. He constantly had guests from among the “registered” officials of Russia, many of whom, together with the “embassy and consulate officials”, took part in his luxurious celebrations on the Mediterranean … Who would believe what they talked about at these “parties”? Just about the theory of the “revival of the Great Russia”? Not me, especially since I carefully investigated some of these events and got an idea about the “name-code-appearance”.
By the way, from 1990 to 1996, the new Russian ambassador to Lithuania, Chikhvadze, served as the consul general in Barcelona. In 1994, the media reported such information. He received “letters with threatening content, demanding the transfer of $450,000 to the account of the party of Russian athletes, namely the party of Kvantlishvili”, and the SVR was involved in checking these situations. This is true.
It is also no secret to experts that there were conflicts between the Malyshev/Petrov gang and the partners of Kvantrishvili, including during that period. If you remember the dirty “Putin case – the 20th Trust”, then you will become completely uneasy. After all, it was from the St. Petersburg mayor’s office that millions of dollars were withdrawn in the first half of the nineties to invest in real estate in southern Spain. Putin personally participated in this secret story of Russia, and Petrov until recently boasted to everyone that he originally owned the entire mayor’s office in St. Petersburg and was still “captive and fed” …
It’s obviously fun, but incredibly difficult to do in practice.http://www.kaunodiena.lt
