Underreported?





The first link goes to a pro-Russian site summarizing the article in the second link, which is from the New York Times, but might not be available to everyone (due to pay walls, etc). 

Here is the gist of it (written from a pro-Russian perspective): 

>>>On Sunday The New York Times published an explosive and very belated full admission that US intelligence has not only been instrumental in Ukraine wartime decision-making, but has established and financed high tech command-and-control spy centers, and was doing so long prior to the Feb. 24 Russian invasion of two years ago.>>>

>>>Among the biggest revelations is that the program was established a decade ago and spans three different American presidents. The Times says the CIA program to modernize Ukraine's intelligence services has "transformed" the former Soviet state and its capabilities into "Washington’s most important intelligence partners against the Kremlin today.">>>

>>>This has included the agency having secretly trained and equipped Ukrainian intelligence officers spanning back to just after the 2014 Maidan coup events, as well constructing a network of 12 secret bases along the Russian borderwork which began eight years ago. These intelligence bases, from which Russian commanders' communications can be swept up and Russian spy satellites monitored, are being used launch and track cross-border drone and missile attacks on Russian territory.>>> 

>>>This means that with the disclosure of the longtime "closely guarded secret" the world just got a big step closer to WW3, given it means the CIA is largely responsible for the effectiveness of the recent spate of attacks which have included direct drone hits on key oil refineries and energy infrastructure.>>> 

>>>Clearly, Kiev and Washington now want world to know of the deep intelligence relationship they tried to conceal for over the past decade. It is perhaps a kind of warning to Moscow at a moment Ukraine's forces are in retreat: the US is fighting hand in glove with the Ukrainians. And yet the revelations contained in the NY Times report also confirm what President Putin has precisely accused Washington of all along.>>>

Also of interest is the claim that Trump didn´t know about the full extent of the CIA program, which was instead in the hands of anti-Russian hawks within his administration, specifically Mike Pompeo and John Bolton. Which suddenly explains some bold statements by the latter about Ukraine having the right to bomb Russia (my observation)...

Why isn´t the above headline news the world over?

  1. Why? Because mainstream media exists to make a profit, not to actually report relevant facts in news briefs. Anything concerning Trump immediately wins *clicks* while the truth is merely a pedestrian on the road to totalitarianism.
