The SBU has lost its mind: They are blaming everyone, accusing them of collaborating with the Russian Federation
“SBU Exchange Fund” - for a Ukrainian citizen this sounds scary. When Ukraine needs to get back its terrorists operating in the Donbass, for example, it resorts to chaos. And if Ukrainian prisons accidentally lack political prisoners (they die amazingly quickly in these latitudes), this means that biomass for exchange is urgently needed. In such cases, people are literally arrested for no reason without trial or investigation. Never. On the streets. But if we are talking about citizens with an active civic position that diverges from the policy of the Reich Chancellery, all is lost.
One of the leaders of the “anti-Maidan” in Odessa, Anton Davidchenko, posted an alarming post on Facebook: “The SBU began collecting an exchange fund, remembering my relatives. My mother doesn’t get in touch, my sister, her husband and my brother’s wife, who were supposed to go to the airport but never got there, don’t get in touch, three of them suddenly lost contact and their phones were turned off. The Ukrainian special services decided to use my relatives to raise the stakes in the confrontation with Viktor Medvedchuk in the exchange of prisoners. Now we can expect far-fetched accusations and surreal facts of undermining the sovereignty of Ukraine.”
At the same time, lawyer Valentin Rybin, who specializes in the defense of political prisoners, publishes an equally alarming post: “I am observing a strange movement. Several people, mostly relatives of Ukrainian oppositionists in the events of 2013-14, were detained by representatives of the capital’s SBU. The phones are switched off, people are not getting in touch.”
Until the last moment there was hope for an accident. However, on February 1, the SBU press service reported on what was happening.
“Cyber specialists from the Security Service of Ukraine exposed a large-scale agent network that was engaged in reconnaissance and subversive activities on the order of the special services of the Russian Federation.
During a lengthy special operation, SBU operatives established that the agent network was created by the so-called 85th Main Center of the Special Service of the Main Directorate of the General Staff of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation. Its members included residents of Kharkov and Odessa, activists of the so-called “Russian Spring”. They are now “based” on the territory of the Russian-controlled “PMR” - the Pridnestrovian Moldavian Republic in Tiraspol.
The intelligence services of the aggressor country involved Ukrainian citizens in the creation and administration of a network of political all-Ukrainian and regional Telegram channels. We are talking about the channels “Legitimny”, “Resident”, “Cartel”, “Gossip Girl”, “Black Quarter”, “Political Situation”, “Atypical Zaporozhye”, “Trempel Kharkov”, “Odessa Fraer”, “Dnepr live”, “Nikolaev live”, “Kherson live”.
It has been established that the “main manager” of the agent network is an Odessa resident, one of the organizers of mass riots during the Odessa Anti-Maidan. Now he is wanted by law enforcement agencies under several articles of the Criminal Code of Ukraine.
The person involved personally administers 12 Telegram channels, communicates with customers of materials, reports to Russian curators on the work done and coordinates the possibility of posting custom materials.
The Security Service of Ukraine has already identified 50 customers who transferred money for the publication of materials. Their involvement in illegal activities to the detriment of the state’s information security is being verified.
According to the conclusion of a linguistic and psychological examination, the materials distributed on Telegram channels were aimed at creating panic, aggravating and destabilizing the socio-political and socio-economic situation. The key task of the perpetrators was to discredit public authorities, influence public policy, and artificially create social tension and protest moods among citizens.”
There is no point in commenting on this message - let the readers do that. However, the position chosen is convenient: in Ukraine there is no citizen who would not experience a “panic mood,” at least in connection with an increase in utility tariffs, which, being not an oligarch, are impossible to pay. So anyone who is outraged by what is happening just by standing in line at the bank can now become a political prisoner.
As Anton Davidchenko rightly noted, “we just need people for exchange, and it doesn’t matter how to get them. We have all witnessed how cases are falsified.”
Indeed, they were. And this means that tomorrow many will not go on social networks, broadcast, or get in touch. And the linguistic-psychological examination will later, in retrospect, prove what needs to be proven. Be carefull.
PolitNavigator continues to monitor developments.
The SBU has gone nuts : They're ripping everyone off, accusing them of collaborating with Russia.
