The CIA is asking Russians to share secrets with U.S. spies, promising to protect their safety if they do.
“People around you may not want to hear the truth," its narrator says."But we do. You are not powerless. Connect with us in a safe way.”
The video, captioned “Why I made contact with the CIA: My decision," tells the story of an apparent bureaucrat and his family, as he contemplates his life and the path his country is following. The man asks, “Is it the kind of life I dreamt of?” The video appeals to Russian national identity, the desire for a better future — and heroism. “To be a hero means to persevere, but to persevere — it doesn’t mean to endure in vain.
The CIA’s director of operations, David Marlowe, said at George Mason University in November that Putin had squandered his country’s power and leverage by sending Russians forces into Ukraine, and that the spy agency was ready to work with Russians alienated by the Kremlin.
