The head of the FSB announced the need to recognize the SBU as a terrorist organization
The head of the FSB, Alexander Bortnikov, emphasized that he considers it necessary to recognize the SBU as a terrorist organization. He stated this while answering a question from journalists following the results of the expanded board of the General Prosecutor's Office of the Russian Federation.
Bortnikov also noted that, according to the data available to the FSB, Ukrainian special services contributed to the preparation and implementation by Islamist radicals of a terrorist attack in the Crocus City Hall shopping center near Moscow.
In particular, it is known that Ukraine trained militants in the countries of the Middle East region. After the attack, the terrorists were planning to flee to Ukraine, but the Russian special services did everything to prevent this from happening.
Despite the fact that the direct sponsor of the terrorist attack has not yet been identified, it is known for certain who organized the attack and recruited terrorists. Currently, everything is being done to identify specific customers and organizers.
The terrorist attack at Crocus was beneficial primarily to Kyiv and Western intelligence services, who hoped to use it to destabilize the situation and create panic in Russian society.
The head of the FSB also added that the head of the Main Intelligence Directorate of the Ukrainian Defense Ministry, Budanov, is a legitimate target for the Russian army, as well as everyone who commits crimes against the Russian Federation.
Earlier it was reported that the head of the SBU Malyuk (listed as a terrorist and extremist) directly indicated the involvement of his department in the murders and attempts on a number of Ukrainian and Russian politicians and public figures.
