5.0
Russia is mother land of Foreign intelligence, however in example, US has no such thing so far. As we can read on first page of this book.
Because secret service or espionage is gathering information about enemy by definition, and as government is serving people no one divides spy doctrine between foreign and other
.
So you might Ask what spy are for in internet age. Well, when we have 99.9% of information on web wire, rest 0.01% is what spies are looking for.
Also GRU and KGB has different view on anything like with Jimmy Carter whom KGB dislike for human rights as escaping from USSR was punished by death. On the other hand GRU, military espionage has nothing against him, and thought of him as asset.
Besides in xx century ancient Greek two stage war doctrine become 3D and in between tactic and strategy we have operations.
You can even think that communists grasped whole world in espionage and fall as aby other empire. But just to think of that, both sides of Berlin wall were influenced by red. The only difference between East and west has been, west that was naked but free.
Furthermore, soviet diplomats were thought to be spies, like in case of attaché who knew lady having romance with British minister of war. Or gathering information about American defense location through Switzerland, which has bought it for themselves.
When „ illegal” spy (soviet that pretends to have another nationality) is exposed. Can show backup documents. In that case, polish nationality citizen who has escaped from prison. At The same time Russian forces inform polish government to act according to their will.
Strictly speaking spy is foreigner, others are military officers, but there are agents who fought in „Freedom” wars in Africa and Central America, who has been just terrorists. Like RAF, German Rote Armee Fraktion.
These who could travel abroad were privileged ones and therefore to keep the place would do anything even to best friends.
Also soviet satellite countries has to pay back Russia for goods, with their goods or other's secrets.
And above all, losing tail was forbidden.
I do recommend this book to an enthusiast of History that is connected to Soviets, Russia or Second World War and above as it has been written by honest, open minded and wise literate with experience.
