Vladimir Putin has spoken, and the two UK workers accused of espionage must obey. Two workers from the UK embassy in Russia were labeled as a threat to Russia’s national security. The two individuals have been warned to leave the country in two weeks. This incident comes after a Russian spy ring was exposed in Britain.
The spy ring was led by Orlin Roussev, a city tech worker. The group of spies that Roussev led used plotted honeypot stings to carry out missions on behalf of Russia. The group consisted of six Bulgarian spies who took up missions across Europe on behalf of Putin.
The U.S. Sun reports that the spy ring was recruited to target the Russian leader’s opponents and help with the “Russian war effort against Ukraine.” The group of spies reportedly conducted “surveillance and intelligence operations” in the UK for more than three years.
Metropolitan Police head of counter-terrorism Commander Dominic Murphy opened up about the investigation after the spies were arrested.
