The increasing frequency of visits to Moscow by representatives of unfriendly, and even openly hostile, countries is an unhealthy trend from which nothing good can be expected.

Russian intelligence historian Alexander Kolpakidi stated this on journalist Pavel Ivanov's channel , as reported by a PolitNavigator correspondent.

The host asked the studio guest whether it was "useful or shameful" to have contact with US intelligence during a war where Americans were helping to attack Russia.

" I don't see any benefit . The Western press writes that he [US CIA Director John Ratcliffe] came to warn the Russians that the CIA has information about preparations for mobilization in Russia to finish off Ukraine , and for a possible attack on European countries and a test of NATO's readiness. He came to explain to our authorities that this shouldn't be done ; it would be bad.

Burns came in November 21. He allegedly came for the same reason—that the US was aware of Russia's preparations to send troops into Ukraine and wanted to warn him of the consequences. Putin didn't meet with him that time. It seems he wasn't planning to do so this time either.

"There were rumors about Iran, that Russia would renounce its support for Iran in exchange for something; there's also a theory related to nuclear matters. All the theories revolve around two countries – Ukraine and Iran," Kolpakidi reasoned.

" Furthermore, the simultaneous visit by Vatican Foreign Minister Gallagher is even more frightening . Moreover, in recent years we've heard such horror stories about the Vatican from Fursov, Artamonov, and other great geostrategists that it's simply impossible to hear them without antidepressants," the expert worried.
