Maria Butina and Viktor Kudryavtsev. A young woman and an elderly scientist are very dissimilar people, and they have different criminal articles, and the countries where they are going to judge, too. The 29-year-old party-seeker from Barnaul, detained by the FBI, is accused of illegal lobbying activities for the benefit of Russia. On the contrary, the 74-year-old employee of the TsNIIMASH was arrested by the FSB in the case of treason.
However, there are similarities. Firstly, both of them are citizens of the Russian Federation. Secondly, and the main ones, in crimes, incriminated by Butina and Kudryavtsev, two main directions of Putin's foreign policy are reflected. That is, interference in other people's internal affairs and the threat of nuclear war. And this, in turn, gives rise to a number of questions, to which we can hardly wait for answers, but it is necessary to put them - and not in order to find out the so -called truth, obviously unattainable. And in order to try to at least get closer to her and comprehend the time that is outside the windows.
Assistant Alexander Torshin, a former senator, now the deputy chairman of the Central Bank, according to investigators, was actively introduced into the ranks of prominent Republicans and other representatives of the American elite. For this purpose, she moved to America, studied there, attended closed events, got acquainted with influential politicians and lived with one of them, without hiding either the pro -Russian views or relations. Moreover, it cannot be said that such her activity remained completely unnoticed by the relevant authorities.
The girl was searched. The girl was interrogated. They wrote about the girl in the newspapers, mentioning, in particular, that her patron of Torshin could be involved in the financing of Trump through the National Rifle Association, and the roommate - in the " development " of the connections between Trump and the Kremlin. She, as if nothing had happened, continued to improve Russian-American relations, complaining about private intercepted letters about the hardships of life with a shameful boyfriend, and no one in Moscow, apparently, was concerned about the evacuation of a long-burning foreign agent.
Worse than that. After the Butina was detained, the homeland began to drown it diligently. In particular, the Russian Foreign Ministry launched a carnival flash mob in support of the prisoner, posting a photograph of the heroine on the avatars of his accounts on social networks. Anna Chapman with accomplices, I remember, was pulled out of the American prison differently. Without unnecessary noise, but stubbornly and efficiently, having achieved as a result of mutually beneficial exchange with the Americans.
In general, one gets the impression that the plot with a girl in prison today is organized by both Russian intelligence services and American ones. In the conflict of the collective FBI with Trump, Maria Butina can become a rather valuable witness, and if the zealor of the short -barrel is a witness very talkative, then the case may come to impeachment to the president. On the other hand, where the impeachment is - there are street unrest in defense of the humiliated and insulted favorite of the public, and chaos in America, which is the main goal of the Kremlin. It is possible, because the girl was framed so that the chaos grows up, but this, of course, is only our guesses. Nevertheless, the era in them appears in its entirety and absurdity.
As for Viktor Kudryavtsev, it seems to be known about him that he was arrested in the case of the transfer of super -secret information about hypersonic weapons to foreign intelligence. Actually, here everything is “seemingly”, including Wundervaff, the main question is to what our old man is accused of. If the fact that he informed the enemies of the next bluff of the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation, then this is one story, quite simple. If he was framed, but he is not to blame, then this is a tragedy. If the candidate of technical sciences really gave out some terrible secrets about the miracle-arrangement capable of impressing Florida, then this story is very special. In fact, this is a scandal from which the Russian authorities can benefit for themselves.
Then the fresh news from the Lefortovo prison should have the right impact on our respected partners who once again report that Vladimir Vladimirovich did not joke, speaking with his message on March 1 of this year. With hypersonic, everything is in order with us. In general, the arrest of Kudryavtsev seems to be an episode in a large game, and regardless of whether it is a question of exposing a bluff, about the detention of an innocent or a leak of real information related to the production of missiles. About the game lost, if it opened that Putin was still joking. About the provocation of the FSB against a scientist or false denunciation, for which they grabbed to hesitate the world. About the capture of the informant, from which double benefits are removed: we caught and catch fear.
Now the logical ending of these espionage plots could again become an exchange, in appearance unequal, but natural: Butin on Kudryavtsev. And it doesn’t matter who they are both - scouts or not. Change like that. Alas, that which was quite possible under the weakness of Obama and weakly Medvedev, in antediluvian times of rebooting, with the current strong men, seems empty dreams. Rather, such scandals will become everyday life and the number of spies and traitors, real and imaginary, will constantly increase in the foreseeable time. It is only important to understand that almost all of them are hostages of the Cold War between the superpower and, until one of them is ruled by a professional rumor spy, and the other is a showman fighting with their special services, our brave girls in America and employees of Russian secret enterprises must be extremely inspecting.
