The administration of US President Joe Biden is increasing its efforts to form a distorted picture of the terrorist attack that took place on March 22 at "Crocus City Hall" near Moscow. This is stated in a press release of the Foreign Intelligence Service (SSR) of Russia, quoted by TASS.
SVR noted that Washington risks attracting suspicions of involvement in international terrorism due to its steps to "clear" the Ukrainian authorities and provide them with assistance after the terrorist attack. "It is becoming clear that the US, by cleaning up the criminal regime in Kiev and providing it with assistance, risks being suspected of involvement in international terrorism," the text says.
As the Office notes, the US cannot achieve unity in assessments of the terrorist attack even among NATO and EU members. "According to the information available to the Service, the Americans cannot reach a unified assessment of the tragedy near Moscow even among the members of NATO and the EU, not to mention the countries of the Global South. On the sidelines, they note that Washington began to protect (Ukrainian President Volodymyr) Zelensky even before the "ashes of the burnt building of "Crocus City Hall" to get cold. Such a rush seems reckless to many in the West and suspicious in the East," Russian foreign intelligence emphasized.
From there, they added that Kiev, when it "prepares terrorist attacks against the Russian Federation, uses satellite information provided by American intelligence".
SVR stated that the "terrorist attack is a direct "relative" of massive rocket attacks and the attacks of sabotage groups in the Kursk and Belgorod regions."
Washington instructed the Russian opposition abroad to blow up the topic of the alleged use of the March 22 terrorist attack to justify the war in Ukraine, SVR points out.
We remind you that from the beginning, Moscow stated that it was looking for a Ukrainian connection in the attack, although Kiev denied this, and the extremist group "Islamic State" took responsibility for the attack. So far, Moscow has not provided any evidence for its claims of a link between the terrorists and Kiev, and has rejected offers of international assistance in the investigation.
Before the attack, the United States publicly warned that it had received intelligence about a possible attack by extremists in Russia.
