This is totally incredible. This "job interview" with an ex Wagner (unfakeable - definitely authentic) drags all details out of him; including how many times he shot down planes, and what Russian military awards he got that. This is an incredible coup by SBU
He sent copies of his awards, and boasted Surkov personally handed the awards at the Kremlin
And a medal "For services to the Fatherland" signed by Putin.
I must say SBU is probably the most efficient and ambitious intel agency in Europe right now...pretty much ahead of FSB, and certainly light years ahead of our stagnant EU services.
I guess, #thanksPutin.
Just go avoid endless individual debates: no, the fact that SBU managed to pull this off doesn't conflict with the concept Wagner is a GRU proxy. As we wrote, Wagner is not a thing. Mercenaries fighting for it are just that - mercenaries, but their commanders report to GRU.
And mercenaries are sometimes stuck at home in between jobs. Perfect targets for this coup by SBU
"An SBU agent had a ticket for the same Minsk-Istanbul flight, who was to have an epileptic seize during a flight over Ukraine, which would require an immediate landing in Kyiv. Disguised as nurses, a group of special forces "Alpha" had to get on the plane and detain all mercs"
