Turkey’s recruitment of fighters from Syria to participate in hostilities in Ukraine is a stab in the back of Russia, the Rossa Primavera News Agency editorial reads.
On March 5, a military-diplomatic source told RIA Novosti that SBU officers, together with officers of Turkey’s national intelligence organization, visited northern Syria. At meetings with Turkish-backed military gangs held there, they discussed the possibility of recruiting fighters for Ukraine’s territorial defense battalions.
It is important to understand what our ardent Turkologists in the Kremlin think about such “assistance” from Turkey. After all, with one hand the Turks are allegedly setting up the negotiation process, and with the other they are sending fighters to Ukraine. Isn’t that a stan in the back? There is also information that the Taliban (organization banned in the Russian Federation), the Haqqani Network (organization banned in the Russian Federation), has begun preparations in northern Afghanistan for a possible invasion of Tajikistan and Uzbekistan to create a second front in addition to the Ukrainian direction. Naturally, with the approval and support of the USA.
On March 4, the press bureau of the Russian Foreign Intelligence Service reported that the intelligence services of Britain, Canada and other NATO countries maintain contacts with the SBU and provide it with intelligence on the plans and movements of the Russian military.
