The Collapse of Communism: The Untold Story
Oleg Gordievsky
Russia is now a perfect KGB state. And it will remain like that, forever probably, because there is no other political force to compete with them. Since late 90’s Russia sent so many spies to Germany that now Germany is full of Russian agents. Also KGB is very influential in countries like Finland, Hungary, Yugoslavian Republics, Bulgaria, Austria, and also fairly influential in Italy and France. The perspective plan of the Putin’s Russian government is to become the boss of Europe. That’s why there is so much pressure on the countries that don’t want to dance under the Russian pipe.
They (KGB) started to control different business organizations where Mafia was strong. Replacing Mafia. So in a way today it’s less organized crime and rather more KGB, which is now, called FSB/SVR. Over the whole world, especially in countries like Austria, Spain, Hungary, there are a lot of organizations looking like Mafia. But it’s practically KGB - FSB who runs it. But then when they have too much money, like on the level of the state, they use money to influence other countries. Like offering huge bribes to politicians of the Europe and America. The big money of Russia is now used to influence the political situation in Western countries.
