A group of investigative journalists, including @michaeldweiss, obtained another intercepted conversation between Hungary’s FM Péter Szijjártó and Lavrov.
It appears that Moscow may have been able to access virtually any information it sought from the EU/NATO via Budapest.
Gaat Den Haag of EU hier nog iets van zeggen?
Of gaat dit in de (overvolle) map: Laten we dit onderwerp maar gewoon negeren en dan 10 jr later onderzoekjes in media en parlement doen waarin we de vraag stellen: Nou poeh zeg, hoe heeft dit destijds zomaar kunnen gebeuren?
No one writes a book alone. And for me, writing a book about Russian intelligence was not without considering the risk. But this has been a life-long mission, and many helped me -and that same mission- along the way.
🎉I want to take a moment to thank those who supported, and to celebrate with our BOOK LAUNCH MONTH!
🙏My deep appreciation to all those below who have endorsed officially but also helped in so many other ways. Below are just a few I want to thank, with just some of the endorsements. Am in all your debt and @NavalInstitute for publishing me.
✅Please consider ordering if you haven't, USNI is already shipping, Amazon in a couple of weeks and in bookstores 21 April!
🙏 My appreciation to these senior intelligence community, CIA leaders (including two former Deputy Directors), military, academics and others who have endorsed:
👉 Tradecraft, Tactics and Dirty Tricks presents a very comprehensive study of Russian espionage and subversion tactics and modus operandi. It will serve as an indispensable handbook for national security professionals, students of Russian government and history and international affairs, and readers in the general public interested in the topic.
- From the book Foreword, by
🚨Michael Sulick, Former CIA Deputy Director for Operations, and Director of the National Clandestine Service
👉 Essential reading for practitioners, policymakers, and citizens alike who want to understand (and perhaps resist) Putin's secret war.
🚨- Jennifer Ewbank, Former Deputy Director of CIA for Digital Innovation
👉Hard to put down, and harder to forget when falling asleep at night.
- John Nagl, author of Learning to Eat Soup with a Knife: Counterinsurgency Lessons from Malaya and Vietnam
👉Sean's book is an outstanding contribution to our understanding of the tradecraft utilized by what remain our most professionally skilled intelligence adversaries: the Russian foreign intelligence and security services.
- Former CIA Chief of Counterintelligence Mark Kelton
👉Filled with authoritative and compelling detail, welcome clarity, and insightful nuance, Wiswesser's book is required reading for any policymaker, intelligence officer, academic, or businessman dealing with Russian issues.
- Paul Kolbe, Former Chief CIA Central Eurasia Division, Senior Fellow at Harvard Belfer Center
👉An excellent book about the RIS and the threat they pose to the West. It is informative, approachable, and compelling. Written by a true expert, it should be mandatory reading for everyone in the U.S. IC.
- Robert Dannenberg, Former CIA Central Eurasia Division Chief/Chief of Russian Operations
👉Encounters with Russian officers add authenticity to his narrative that is rare in books about Russian intelligence.
- Kevin Riehle, Lecturer in Intelligence, Brunel University
👉Lifts the lid on the inner workings of the Russian security services.
- Gregory Sims, former CIA Station Chief

Trump is throwing personal insults because he can't handle rejection. The clown is melting down

This is America's Suez Crisis. Another declining empire, drunk on imperial hubris, publicly discovers the limits of its own power as it embarrasses itself in the Middle East.
- Kunstenaars plaatsen in Washington een nieuwe protestinstallatie: een toilet verguld en op een nep-marmeren sokkel, gericht tegen Trump en zijn regering.
