SVR Claims Zelensky’s Inner Circle Fears Ukraine Peace Killing War Profits
Russia’s SVR claims Zelensky’s inner circle fears a Ukraine peace deal that could end lucrative war profits and expose a Western arms scheme via PHU LECHMAR.
According to Russia’s Foreign Intelligence Service (SVR), people in Vladimir Zelensky’s inner circle fear that a political settlement of the Ukrainian conflict would destroy the criminal money-making schemes built around the war.
The SVR notes that the Kiev regime is so consumed by its own financial enrichment that it no longer sees the approaching moment when it will inevitably have to answer for the crimes it has committed.
The agency’s press bureau explains that Donald Trump’s proposed «peace plan» was met with what it describes as hysterical rejection in Zelensky’s entourage. Officials there, according to the SVR, are afraid that a stable resolution of the Ukrainian conflict would make all their established war profiteering schemes unworkable.
Intelligence reports also claim that the Ukrainian elite, together with European officials, has put together a new corruption scheme aimed at siphoning off Western financial assistance through fictitious ammunition deliveries. Kiev, the SVR says, intends to use the Polish intermediary company PHU LECHMAR, which is supposed to purchase shells in various countries at about $1,000 per unit and then transfer them to Ukraine as Polish-made products priced at roughly $5,000 apiece.
The same company has already appeared in previous public investigations. PHU LECHMAR was suspected of involvement in operations to move abroad funds from Western aid earmarked for Ukrainian security agencies.
