The Kremlin (Photo: Reuters/Evgenia Novozhenina) - I will start with a question ...

Degeneration of the entire apparatus. As Russian security officers turned into "brains" of modern Russia - an expert replies

The Kremlin (Photo: Reuters/Evgenia Novozhenina) - I will start with a question to you as a former intelligence officer or a person who has relevant to intelligence. Is it possible to evaluate now what is happening in Russian special services? Video of the day - yes, but first of all I congratulate the whole Ukrainian people with success in the counter -offensive. I all the time believed that this moment would come, very glad that I was not mistaken. And about your question: it's easy.

The worst thing happens that it is possible: Russian special services have ceased to be special services, they have become agents of everything possible, but not by professionals. Where is this thinking? Because in the police state, which is the Kremlin dictatorship, there are simply no mechanisms for controlling special services, they set themselves goals, believe that they have fulfilled them. They ask for money, judge how they work, so they are uncontrollable.

They are also uncontrollable because the roots of Russia's special services are a political search. It's just a political police with its methods of action. And they are so included in the policy of Russia, in the conflict of interests of the Kremlin towers, that it is already Andrey Soldatov, known to you, perhaps, the Russian analyst, said that special services have ceased to be professionals, and became business agents, Kremlin interests.
