#Ukraine finally arrested the top ranked mole, long-time Russian FSB agent Oleg Kulinich (linked to sanctioned by the US Andrey Derkach). Since 2020, Kulinich was returned by Ukr top spy Ivan Bakanov to top ranks in @ServiceSsu & responsible for occupied #Crimea. Thread⬇️
[2] Arrest of the RU agent in @ServiceSsu top ranks is sensational. It puts its chief Ivan #Bakanov into a spotlight for appointing Kulinich. In June, @ZelenskyyUa wanted to dismiss Bakanov, but the leak in @Politico via Christopher Miller thwarted it. politico.com/news/2022/06/2…
[3] The arrested today Russian mole in top ranks of #Ukraine's @ServiceSsu Oleg Kulinich studied the spycraft in Moscow during the collapse of the Soviet Union: he enrolled in the Supreme KGB School (no open enrollment) which changed its name to FSB Academy.
[4] One of the reasons behind the arrest of the top Russian spy in @ServiceSsu Oleg Kulinich is that before the RU invasion in February #Ukraine removed all minefields along the separation line with occupied #Crimea. It enabled invaders to capture the south of Ukraine fast.
[5] Interestingly, the arrest of RU mole in @ServiceSsu could be triggered by US Rep. @Victoria_Spartz (R-IN) letter accusing @ZelenskyyUa's chief of staff @AndriyYermak exactly in what RU agent Kulinich is accused now - demining #Crimea border & sabotage of pre-war preparations
[6] The top-ranked Russian mole #Kulinich was caught red-handed at the transfer of the classified info to Russia, said the #Ukraine State Bureau of Investigations. He's indicted on at least 3 crimes: spying, treason, and participation in a criminal gang. dbr.gov.ua/news/dbr-ta-sb…
[7] Today, President of #Ukraine @ZelenskyyUa dismissed the chief of @ServiceSsu Ivan Bakanov, his childhood friend & former director of his comedy show. This happened on the next day after the arrest of the top-ranked Russian mole. Link: president.gov.ua/documents/4992…
