If what Simpkin is suggesting is true, they got someone to flip and leak the entire western surveillance operation to western media. there’s no way they’d be giving him up.. imagine trying to convince the next asset that Russia’s got your back..

Not like his grandparents fought at the Siege of Leningrad and his Dad did combat training with Vlad himself.

Immensely disposable.
