Army Special Forces or maybe members of your choice secret services. In both cases, Kiev’s hand was behind the failed May 3 attack on the Kremlin. The bomb did not come from apparatuses close to Russian power, but directly from American officials. According to the New York Times, the failed attack on the Moscow building would be just the latest in a series of episodes that have embarrassed the Biden administration.
The Times writes that there are no details yet. The Stars and Stripes intelligence agencies do not know exactly which unit conducted the operations, but most importantly, it is unclear whether the Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelenskyy and other Ukrainian government officials knew about the operation. According to some sources interviewed by the American newspaper, the President would not have been informed.
interceptions and doubts
The Ukrainian route via US services is still fraught with uncertainty. American agents linked the incursion to Ukrainian forces, not only on the basis of wiretapping by Russian officials who brought up Kiev’s enemy, but also thanks to messages from Ukrainian agents who said they suspected their country’s involvement plausible. So it remains to be seen if there were any crazy splitter of the Zelenskyy apparatus or whether there is official governance behind it.
At the moment, some American 007 deep-throats say the possibility of direct involvement from Zelenskyy’s entourage is “slight”. But the rating must not mislead. The available items are still too few: for example, it is not clear which units went into action about 20 days ago.
Embarrassment for the Biden administration
This revelation, which someone within the American apparatus sought to bring to light, is one in a series of many other episodes that have embarrassed the White House and the Pentagon. At the table, many in Washington say, there is a danger of transcending a dangerous issue Red line: that of the direct involvement of the United States. In fact, Russia could blame the Americans for the attacks, thereby escalating the conflict.
As the recent incursions in the Belgorod region also show, the main risk at the moment is the expansion of the galaxy by small units conducting attacks, attacks and operations on Russian soil, with no or no control from Kiev. Or worse, that Zelenskyy loses control of part of his apparatus.
The trail of the attacks
The list of “embarrassing” surgeries keeps getting longer. It ranges from the attack in which Darya Dugina died to the murder of Russian blogger a St Pietroburgoto the suspicion that a Ukrainian commando damaged the pipeline north current.
These operations behind enemy lines have been a thorn in Moscow’s side for months, but more importantly they represent worrying signals for possible negotiations and open the door to escalation of the conflict. Kiev itself, through the way it has organized its armed forces, is putting up a smokescreen that prevents it from having complete information. For example, the army and security service of Ukraine, the famous SBU, have special special forces that operate in an overlapping and, in some cases, even in competition.
American agents have repeatedly pointed out the organization of special forces and secret services. In particular, they declare that Kiev government He would have consciously created this interlocking system and given the apparatuses a free hand as to who they attack and how. A trick, the American sources point out, thanks to which Zelenskyy is never directly involved. In the middle there is a whole, undefined gray area, where parts of the Ukrainian state are intertwined with the anti-Putin galaxy in Russia. A galaxy of extremists, nationalists dissatisfied with the Kremlin and neo-Nazi militarists.
