Valentyn Nalyvaichenko, the head of the Ukrainian Security Service (SBU), provided the personal files of Ukrainian special service officials to the CIA during his tenure as head of the Ukrainian Security Service in 2006-2010, Oleksandr Yakymenko, who has recently left the post of head of the Ukrainian Security Service, said.
“CIA officials worked in the Ukrainian Security Service under
Nalyvaichenko. The personal files of SBU officials were provided to
them,” Yak y menko said in an interview aired on Rossiya 24 television
on Wednesday.
Nalyvaichenko was under investigation, which was “never completed,” Yak y menko said.
Yak y menko disagreed that the new government of Ukraine is appointed by “the Maidan.”
“It’s not true […] The Maidan does not appoint anyone, they are appointed by the U.S.,” Yakymenko said.
Yak y menko did not rule out the possibility that funding for the
financing of the Kyiv Maidan was received from some Western countries by
diplomatic mail.
“We as a special service know about an increase in diplomatic mail
received by diplomatic missions in Ukraine from the beginning of the
Maidan. It was much more than regular diplomatic mail. Such supplies led
to the appearance of new dollars on the Maidan,” Yak y menko said,
saying that that was indicated by exchange officers located near the
Maidan.
Yak y menko said the U.S. was interested in the exacerbation of the situation in Ukraine.
“It was only that the U.S. didn’t like the idea of a union of Europe,
Ukraine and Russia […] They didn’t like the Customs Union,” Yak y menko
said
