Supershpion Vasenkov

Juan Lazaro (Mikhail Vasenko) and Vicki Peles

“Kommersant” published a sensational article from which it follows that the ten spies caught in the USA were handed over to the defector, Colonel Shcherbakov, who was in charge of the SVR with American illegal immigrants and escaped in the United States three days before the exposure.

The authors of the material assure that their investigation was like real "intelligence work". The informants flatly refused to speak on the phone and "not once replaced the addresses of their electronic mailboxes." However, the very nature of the information merged with these informants suggests that the article was the result of a special operation of special services, which indicates, firstly, about disassembly inside the office, and secondly, about the intention to turn a dozen clowns into heroes.

The main object of heroization in the article was 65-year-old Mikhail Vasenkov, aka Juan Lazaro, “the most valuable and experienced of ten Russian illegal immigrants”, according to Kommersant's sources.

Sources (those who were afraid to speak on the phone), under a terrible secret, reported that “under the guise of a fashionable photographer, Juan Lazaro sparkled all Latin America, along the way to acquaintance among politicians and businessmen,” that his wife Vika Pelaes was a “influential journalist”, and among the acquaintances of Vasenkov were “high -ranking functionaries from the left wing of the US Democratic Party”.

“The biography of Vasenkov-Lazaro was so impeccable that, even arresting him, the American intelligence services were powerless to prove the connection of the detainee with Russian intelligence. A gray-haired family man, whose children, wife, numerous neighbors ... were ready to confirm any fact from the life of a respectable 65-year-old American Lazaro, ”Kommersant writes. And so it would have continued if a bloody traitor - Colonel Shcherbakov did not appear in the camera for the new Sorge.

“He who came in Russian called his name and surname, title, place of work arrested, after which he said:“ Mikhail Anatolyevich, you need to admit and give up. ” But here Vasenkov answered in Spanish that he does not understand what language this person speaks in! And only when the traitor handed over to the Americans a folder with Vasenkov’s personal file, he “named his real name, adding that he intends to say anything else.” The Americans broke him three ribs and leg, but he was still silent. Nails would make from these people!

With such an abundance of heroic details, you somehow lose sight of the main thing: what, in fact, the “valuable illegal” explored this?

From his own point of view - not a horseradish.

The American prosecution in the summer contained the following quote from the conversation of Juan Lazaro and Vika Pelaes, recorded back in 2002. Lazaro: "They say that my information is not worth it, because I do not indicate the sources." Pelaes: "And you put the name of any politician."

Further, Lazaro continues to complain about his bosses: “I will write to them what they want. But I will continue to report what I report. If they don’t like what I inform them, the worse for them ... They say that their hands are connected. They do not care about the country. "

What exactly did the “most valuable of illegal immigrants” report that even the Moscow center did not take him seriously?

It is difficult to say for sure, but I risk expressing one assumption. It is associated with the biography of “valuable illegal”, the peak of which came in 2008, when the “impeccable family man” as a temporary professor a whole semester lectured at Baruch College.

There he performed no worse than the Commissioner of the Movement "Our". Amazed students “Valuable illegal” said that the war in Iraq and Afghanistan was arranged by the bloody American imperialists under the pressure of a military lobby; He praised the great man Hugo Chavez and noted that the Colombian president of Alvaro Urist is a hostage to militarized groups that monopolized drug trafficking (US ally Alvaro Urist, if anyone does not know, made huge and very effective efforts to destroy the drug materials in Colombia).

Since Baruch College is not Seliger, they drove the “valuable illegal” to the next semester.

The Supershpion did not hide his radical views and in 1990 even managed to publish an article glorifying Sendero Lumino (“The bright path”-the Peruvian left-breeding organization that widely used terrorist forms of activity). It was, to put it mildly, imprudent, if only because the wife of a valuable illegal, the Peruvian journalist Vika Pelaes, was allegedly abducted by the like -minded “Sentero”, with a revolutionary movement. Tupaca Amaru.

The partisans abducted the then popular TV presenter and did not let go until television transmitted the appeals they needed. After their release, the authorities were forced to suspect the testimony of the operator stolen with her that the incident was a staging and proceeding with the full consent of Ms. Pelas. Ms. Pelaes lost her status of the TV star and left for the United States. Given these circumstances, the wife of a woman abducted by terrorists, probably, should not publish an article that leaves no doubt about his sympathies to the views of terrorists.

So, this is what. Firstly, I risk assuming that Juan Lazaro’s reports contained exactly the same as his lectures at the American college. That is, their value was zero, although Moscow cost a damn a lot of money. (In the same 2002, the Americans recorded a scene on a tape recorder, in which Vicki Pelaes informs her husband that she brought from Peru “eight times” to “ten” and that they have “seventy -two and a half”.)

By the way, the spy activity of Juan Lazaro is perfectly documented. In the charges, among other things, there are links to audio recording of January 14, 2000, when Pelaes reports Lazaro that “everything went well” (refers to her money from Russian intelligence officer in Latin America), and on the video of August 25, 2007, when Lazaro in the same Latin America also meets with an agent.

On January 8, 2003, Lazaro reports Pelaes that he will transmit with her a text written in an “invisible” letter. On April 17, 2002, he tells his wife that “at the beginning of the war we moved to Siberia,” and on May 6, 2003, Lazaro reports that “gets a radiogram” “from there”. So the statement of the Kommersant source, that “even having arrested it, the American special services were powerless to prove the connection of the detainee with Russian intelligence,” causes bewilderment. And the behavior of Don Juan in the cell greatly resembles the behavior of Don Quixote. I don’t know how about broken ribs, but think about it: the American special services for ten years documented every step of “valuable illegal”. Why did they beat him, for the sake of pleasure, or what?

Secondly, the most important question. Tell me, what great information about American politics could report “valuable illegal” if he publicly proclaimed himself a fan of terrorists and a harsh critic of the cursed American military? Imagine what Richard Sorge would recognize if you publicly give a lecture on the Wise Woods of Stalin in Japanese colleges?

Some time after the arrest of ten clowns, it became clear that our special services were trying to make a good mine in a bad game. Putin sang with ten clowns “where the homeland begins,” Medvedev awarded them the Order “For Courage”. And now the plum campaign clearly begins, which must prove that only the vile traitor Shcherbakov helped the Americans expose the “valuable agent”, each step of which was meticulously documented for ten years (that is, it was ten years ago, it turned out, handed over?!) And who publicly praised the Chavez, and pretended to consider his information to be useless. I think that the article in Kommersant is only the first swallow. We will still hear a lot of “terribly secret sources” about the exploits of our new Sorge and Mata Hari.
