... interesting people in Moscow). Somebody raised here the question why often Larry's and other CIA people (like Ray McGovern) get to Moscow on invitations by Mr. Malofeev. OK, legit question--Malofeev is a billionaire and the owner of such TV station as Tsargrad. He is a somewhat confused individual with strong pro-Russian Orthodox and even monarchist tendencies. There is a lot to be admired about Malofeev's but there are also questions about his sometimes peculiar stances on a number of issues--rumor has it he provided a cover for former Maidan "sotnik" and the so called "expert" (in reality nobody) Yuri Podolyaka who has to be by now behind bars for outright pro-404 propaganda. If true, that, together with sometimes downright ridiculous reporting by Tsargrad, must be considered in otherwise decent status of Malofeev. But we will file this for a later time. Meanwhile.
I have had an interesting series of meetings since arriving in Moscow last Wednesday. I am getting the chance to have in-depth chats with a variety of military and political leaders. I attended a dinner tonight with Lt. General Apti Alaudinov, who played a major role in destroying the Ukrainian force that invaded Kursk last year. The operation led by General Apty Alaudinov involved Russian forces using a gas pipeline as a clandestine route to recapture the town of Sudzha in the Kursk region in March 2025. The operation began when Russian special forces, studying the map and the Ukrainian gas shutdown, identified a strategic tunnel created by Ukraine at the gas pipeline, the main route used for Russian gas transit to Europe. They then undertook a meticulous plan to infiltrate the area through this pipeline, which involved digging a tunnel and preparing it for an assault.
