In Russia, there “temniki” regarding the manipulation of the authorities of five European countries – Reuters

In some countries, Russia’s influence has become so widespread that it challenged national stability.

Russia launched a secret campaign of economic and political measures, to manipulate in the five countries of Central and Eastern Europe, discreditied the liberal-democratic model of the West and wants to blow up transatlantic link.

The official, who requested anonymity, said that the White house had ordered officials not publicly discuss the hostile activities of Russia. These measures according to him include bribery, propaganda, disinformation, the “accidental” murder of Kremlin critics at home or abroad. Russia’s actions in relation to the extension of its influence in Central and Eastern Europe are very different: they vary from contract to 12.2 billion euros for the construction of two new nuclear reactors in Hungary, which will build a Russian “foggy” and to the cultivation of Pro-Russian businessmen who get political office, and then protect the interests of Moscow.

The governments of Hungary and Greece openly sympathetic to Putin. The result of these sympathies is the fact that a significant “fifth column” in Western and Central Europe weakens the response to Russian aggression.
