Yesterday the briefing of the Security Service of Ukraine (SBU) was held, during which its head Vasily Hrytsak made public information about a Russian sabotage and reconnaissance group (DRG) neutralized on the territory of Ukraine. According to him, the tasks of the DRG, which consisted of personnel of the Main Intelligence Directorate of the Russian General Staff (GRU), included the preparation and execution of the assassination of Ukrainian intelligence officers, including information gathering, surveillance, etc. One of the videos presented showed the interrogation of one of the DRG participants, who talked about the tasks assigned to him and the preparation for their implementation. By the way, it ended with the accidental self-explosion of another member of the group, Alexey Komarychev (who is currently in a Ukrainian hospital), after which the DRG was neutralized.
But our media are primarily interested in the identity of the hero of this video. Timur Dzortov turned out to be none other than the former bodyguard of the head of the Republic of Ingushetia, Yunusbek Yevkurov, which is supported by numerous confirmations. According to him, he was recruited by the GRU during his training at the Russian Academy of Public Service (RANHiGS) under the President of Russia (!), which turned a promising civil servant into a failed killer.
In connection with this, one could, of course, ask what is the essence of public service in Russia today, if training at an elite educational institution under the country’s president produces saboteurs instead of administrators who successfully solve the problems of their citizens? However, considering which corporate representatives are currently ruling Russia, such a question is clearly rhetorical…
Another interesting question is why a young aspiring Ingush would take other people’s lives and risk his own, when he has opportunities to develop in other fields? A possible answer follows from the previous question — because the path he chose, instead of working as a regular civil servant within the existing system, opens the most effective career opportunities. And it turns out that the «leaders of Russia», judging by this story, are not public figures like Kirienko, but people like Andrei Lugovoy, who was recognized by a British court as responsible for the murder of Alexander Litvinenko, but was nevertheless publicly awarded «For Merits to the Fatherland» by Vladimir Putin and became a deputy of the State Duma of the Russian Federation, or people like Timur Dzortov.
But where is the national dignity of people like Dzortov? Killing citizens of a state that has done no harm to the Ingush people in order to curry favor with those who are disposing of their land without their consent? And this at a time when almost the entire Ingush nation is united in the struggle for its dignity and rights against the lawlessness of this regime? Imperial propaganda in such cases likes to refer to the example of the «Wild Division», of which both Dzortov and Evkurov can be considered as successors. But what did this service bring to the peoples of the Caucasus?
