According to CIA chief William Burns, Russia’s dissatisfaction with the war in Ukraine is a unique opportunity to recruit spies. Burns said at a lecture in England yesterday that his authority would not let this opportunity go to waste.
“Armed Challenge”
The armed mutiny by mercenary leader Yevgeny Prigozhin, meanwhile, says the CIA chief shows the corrosive effects of President Vladimir Putin’s war in Ukraine on Russia.
According to Burns, the consequences of the uprising are likely to have an impact on Russian society and the regime in Moscow for some time to come. He described the mutiny as an “armed challenge to the Russian state”. But it was an internal Russian matter in which the US played no role.
According to Burns, the Russian economy will be badly damaged for the next few years because of the war. Because of Putin’s mistakes, Russia is developing into China’s junior partner and economic colony, according to Burns.
