Read our latest crazy story on the spy who was so successful at pretending he's someone else that the GRU "killed off" his real persona and stranded him with the fake one. From a fake environmental expert to a purveyor of fake news:

More than a year's worth of investigation into the very Russian life of ex-Wirecard COO, and wannabe Russian super-spy Jan Marsalek: in English: theins.ru/en/inv/284980

Probably can't be a coincidence, yes.
Yes, but all the false evidence linking him to Russian passwords/emails/persons are just detracting from your other finds. So just make sure you're clear that that is a mistake. Sergio.gor@gmail.com has no connection whatsoever to those leaked passwords. It's an error that sends into a rabbit hole.
Only part of this is true. Please be careful to not spread false (while well-intentioned) information as it hurts real investigations in the future. The Russian with the "same password" is a totally random person who happened to use a very similar Gmail username. That password is unrelated to Gor.
This from @christogrozev.bsky.social is worth a watch

How the GRU's Unit 29155 hacking department obsessed over @bellingcat.com, created the biolabs conspiracy and left their targeting server unprotected....among other crazy findings in this latest investigation: theins.press/en/inv/281731
Or as my colleague posited, unfortunately sarcastically: Wow, of she's a US asset, the Americans are going places..
So the question is: did Witkoff really think she was sent by the US embassy? Or did, maybe worse, the UA embassy in Moscow endorse her as a "neutral" interpreter for a negotiation where lives of hundreds of thousands of people - plus the security of half the world - were at stake?
Leaked social insurance records show that in addition to being employed by the MFA, she is also working for the holding company of RT, the Kremlin's propaganda mouthpiece.
Her name is Natalia Koshkina, born 1991. Currently she works as second secretary of the Russian MFA's linguistics department..but a few years ago she worked as third secretary of the Russian mission to NATO in Brussels.. almost certainly not am interpreter job.
More worryingly, she's also apparently the interpreter for the head of Russia's foreign intelligence agency, Naryshkin.
She apparently is the government appointed interpreter for key Russian political figures, such as Putin, Lavrov and Medvedev.
Unfortunately, the video only shows a glimpse of her side profile. Fortunately, today's AI face search tools are happy with that breadcrumb of visual information.
So what embassy is the interpreter from? Obviously there's no Russian embassy in Moscow (unless Witkoff thinks so), so a logical conclusion is that he was assured she was, hm, sent by or approved by the US embassy? Anyway, let's look at who she is.
Here's the video released by the Kremlin. It clearly shows Witkoff pointing at the young woman and asking "Interpreter?", to which Putin & Co say "yes". Following that, cryptically Witkoff asks "from Embassy?", to which he again gets a confirmation.
NBC reports that, shockingly, during his latest Moscow pilgrimage Witkoff met with Putin and his two negotiators alone and without his own interpreter, relying - in breach of protocol - on a locally present one www.nbcnews.com/world/russia.... However, this seems half the problem (1/n)

More interestingly, Louvrier` team ominously plotted to silence me using "the famous robots, once unleashed". In retrospect, I wonder if this was the troll farm(s) that were deployed by Russian Intel by both Prigozhin and Malofeev.
I never thought that Pierre Louvrier, about whose deep connections to Russian oligarchs with GRU links I wrote 10 years ago (and who bluffed he would sue me), would one day pop up in US confirmation hearings. cgrozev.wordpress.com/2015/03/26/m...
