Andrei Soldatov: The true role of the FSB in the Ukrainian crisis
The intrigue is growing over the Federal Security Service's involvement in Ukraine. On April 11, Ukraine's Deputy Prosecutor General said there was no evidence implicating the FSB in events on Maidan Square. At the same time, it is officially confirmed that FSB generals visited Kiev on Feb. 20 to 21. Recall that the Ukrainian Foreign Ministry sent a note to Moscow on April 4 demanding to know why FSB Colonel General Sergei Beseda visited Kyiv on Feb. 20 and 21, and that the very next day Interfax cited a source in Russian intelligence confirming that visit.
