U.K. accuses Russia of scheming to
install a pro-Kremlin government in Ukraine
by Paul Sonne, John Hudson, Shane Harris
The British government on
Saturday accused Russia of organizing a plot to
install a pro-Moscow government in Ukraine, as
the Kremlin masses troops and materiel near the
Ukrainian border in what Western officials fear
is an impending military assault on the
neighboring nation.
The U.K. Foreign, Commonwealth and
Development Office gave relatively
little information about the intelligence
unveiled Saturday other than to say that the
Russian government was considering trying to
make a Russia-leaning former member of Ukraine’s
parliament, Yevhen Murayev, the country’s new
leader.
“The information being released today shines
a light on the extent of Russian activity
designed to subvert Ukraine, and is an insight
into Kremlin thinking,” U.K. Foreign
Secretary Liz Truss said in a statement,
calling on Russia to de-escalate and pursue a
path of diplomacy.
“As the U.K. and our partners have said
repeatedly, any Russian military incursion into
Ukraine would be a massive strategic mistake
with severe costs,” Truss said.
British authorities also
said they had information showing how Russia’s
intelligence services maintain links with
numerous former Ukrainian politicians. Some of
those former Ukrainian politicians are in
contact with Russian intelligence officers
planning the attack on Ukraine, the
British government said.

whether he will at all
by Shane Harris, John Hudson, Ellen Nakashima
Last week, British Foreign Secretary Liz Truss
publicly accused Russia of organizing a plot to
install a pro-Moscow government led by a former
member of Ukraine’s parliament.

The intelligence underlying that
revelation, which also linked some
former Ukrainian politicians to Russian
intelligence officers involved in planning for
an attack on Ukraine, was collected and
declassified by the United States,
according to multiple people familiar with the
matter. The Biden administration asked
the British government, which vetted
the intelligence and was confident in its
accuracy, to publicly expose the Russian
plotting, the people said.
U.S. intelligence has assessed that Putin has
underestimated how costly an invasion could be
in Russian lives lost and in the devastating
effects of sanctions on Russia’s economy,
according to officials familiar with the
information.
Intelligence analysts also have concluded
that Putin is being misinformed by his own
circle of advisers, who appear unwilling to
confront him with the full consequences of
military action.
Not only came the fake 'intelligence' from the
U.S. instead of the UK, it was also totally sucked
from a thumb. As is the alleged 'intelligence
assessment' about a misinformed Putin.
If you want to know how an 'invasion' of Ukraine
by Russia would look like read
Ukraine and Russian escalation dominance: A Fiction
at the Saker's site. Yes, it is a fiction. The
'rules of targeting' by Russia would realistically
be less harsh than NATO's. But the time frame of a
some five days long war, mostly by stand-off
missiles, seems quite realistic to me.
Oh, by the way, for me as a German the best
paragraph in the later WaPo piece is this
one:
For its part, Germany also remains skeptical of
an imminent Russian invasion. At this stage,
Berlin sees no indication that Russia will move
into Ukraine immediately, a senior German
official said. Evidence that Moscow plans to act
quickly may exist, but if the United States
possesses it, it hasn’t shared it with the
Germans, the official added.
U.S. 'intelligence'.
What a joke.
