NY Times: CIA Built 12 Secret Spy Bases in Ukraine Waging Shadow War Against Russia Since 2014 – John Brennan Caught in the Middle of It
Gateway Pundit ^ | Feb. 26, 2024 | By Jim Hoft

On Sunday, The New York Times published a rare US admission that US intelligence has not only been instrumental in Ukraine’s wartime decision-making but has established and financed high-tech command-and-control spy centers and was doing so long prior to the Feb. 24 Russian invasion of two years ago.

According to Zero Hedge, The New York Times admitted that the program was established a decade ago and spans three different American presidents. The Times says the CIA program to modernize Ukraine’s intelligence services has “transformed” the former Soviet state and its capabilities into “Washington’s most important intelligence partners against the Kremlin today.”

Zero Hedge reported:

This means that with the disclosure of the longtime “closely guarded secret” the world just got a big step closer to WW3, given it means the CIA is largely responsible for the effectiveness of the recent spate of attacks which have included direct drone hits on key oil refineries and energy infrastructure.

A main source of the NYT revelations—disclosures which might come as no surprise to those never willing to so easily swallow the mainstream ‘official’ narrative of events—is identified as a top intelligence commander named Gen. Serhii Dvoretskiy.

Clearly, Kiev and Washington now want the world to know of the deep intelligence relationship they tried to conceal for over the past decade.

Kanekoa the Great posted this viral report earlier today on X.

The New York Times disclosed yesterday that the CIA built “12 Secret Spy Bases” in Ukraine, waging a shadow war against Russia for the past decade.

After a U.S.-supported violent coup toppled Ukraine’s democratically elected government, CIA Director John Brennan visited Kyiv in April 2014.

Shortly after, the new Ukrainian government launched an “anti-terror operation” against its Russian-speaking citizens in Eastern Ukraine.

For eight years leading up to Russia’s invasion in 2022, Ukraine’s government, with help from the CIA, relentlessly bombed Eastern Ukraine.

Millions of innocent civilians were caught in the crossfire of a geopolitical chess match between Russia and the United States.

This is part of the story often ignored by the Western press.

This is the government the Founders warned us about.

And then in June 2014, Creepy Joe visited Kiev and Burisima hired Whoremonger Hunter Biden. From the story below:

"Hunter Biden’s employment means he will be working as a director and top lawyer for a Ukrainian energy company during the period when his father and others in the Obama administration attempt to influence the policies of Ukraine’s new government"

The CIA is behind the Russia-Ukraine War and the coup against President Trump when he tried to stop it:

A geopolitical chess match that never takes place without spiking fuel prices in 2014 and today.

MAGA oil had Putin crying and Iran near destitute.

They contrive war to line their own pockets.

The other thing is that neither the Wash Post or CNN have touched this story.

If there were major things that were wrong in this story, or the CIA wanted to dispute, they would use the Post to do it.

The story also goes thru how a location previously bombed by Russia, they built a bunker underneath, had the workmen park far away etc.

It’s like a message to Putin, wind up a Kinzal and bomb our underground bunker !

Who of any of this gang has the incentive to do that? Budanov might be in that bunker when it is blown up.

Actually, the Western media regularly reported on Ukraine's shelling of Donbass for eight years. But then on February 24, 2022, they all suddenly had amnesia.

This was the most justified invasion of the post-Cold War era.

“Spans three presidents”...which means Obama started it, they probably hid it from Trump, and Biden picked up where Obama left off.


They sure did.

“But whatever Trump said and did, his administration often went in the other direction. This is because Trump had put Russia hawks in key positions, including Mike Pompeo as CIA director and John Bolton as national security adviser. They visited Kyiv to underline their full support for the secret partnership, which expanded to include more specialized training programs and the building of additional secret bases.

The base in the forest grew to include a new command center and barracks, and swelled from 80 to 800 Ukrainian intelligence officers.”

Spying on annoying foreign countries is exactly what the CIA was made for, their proper jobs. I dont see the problem.

When the CIA spies on their own people, that is a problem.

Russia had nothing to worry about.

They were mostly peaceful spy bases.

They sure did.

One of the media’s greatest powers is the ability to memory-hole stories.

Budanov might be in that bunker when it is blown up.

Now it makes sense that Victoria Nuland went to Kiev last month and told Zelensky to replace General Zaluzhny with General Budanov. Nuland thought Budanov was in the CIA's pocket, but then Budanov said no! Budanov has now defected over to the Asovs, or one of the other splinter groups in Kiev.

Why did Col. Vindman, who was the Air Force whistleblower the got Trump his 1st impeachment, get offered the post of Ukrainian Defense Minister by the CIA-controlled government of the Ukraine?

How do you know the CIA wasnt running ops in Finland?
It was a natural place to talk to people crossing the Finnish-Soviet border.

Case in point, Anatoly Golitsyn, KGB defector (look him up), passed the lines via Helsinki, 1961. Along with his family.
