WOW: Svetlana Istoshina, wife of Hungarian far-right MEP Béla Kovács worked with Vladimir Putin in Soviet times, according to the testimony of Béla Kovács Sr., the MEP’s deceased foster father. Back then, Putin was an intelligence officer & Istoshina was a KGB messenger. Thread. 
This was revealed at today’s court hearing in Budapest. Béla Kovács is accused of spying for Russia against EU institutions. His father gave a testimony to prosecutors some years ago when he was still alive. Prosecutors now use this as a witness testimony. index.hu/belfold/2019/0…
Here is the full story of Kovács, revealed by Index’s András Dezső in 2014:
-Kovács turned Hungarian far-right party Jobbik into a pro-Kremlin one.
-His real father is a Russian military officer.
-His wife, Svetlana had three husbands at the same time.
