Did the FSB Betray Victor Bout?
Warsaw, Poland: In my first article, published on the CFP on March 14, and then reposted on political Web sites in Britain, Switzerland and in the United States, I reported about the DEA sting operation against Victor Bout and also on some events from the past, involving him and other people. A few hours only after the CFP publication, I received interesting documentation from Bucharest, Romania, which was published in part in my second article, posted on the CFP on Tuesday, March 18, 2008. A story recently printed in a Polish magazine Gazeta Polska provided more facts about international links of Victor Bout’s criminal network, including his business with Polish Military Intelligence, and also with Russian and Polish gangsters Semyon Mogilevich and Riccardo Fanchini (Marian Kozina). According to the Polish TV reporter Witold Gadowski, one of the high-positioned protectors of Victor Bout in the Putin’s Kremlin was gor Ivanovich Sechin, known as an opponent of the new President of Russia, Dmitry Medvedev.- Thursday, March 20, 2008
