More Russian spies in US than anytime in ‘past 15 years’: report

[Amica Nostra 4,803]

Russian spies have flooded the US to infiltrate government, businesses and other institutions as President Vladimir Putin has dramatically expanded intelligence operations on US soil, a new report said Monday.

“There are more Russian operatives, declared and undeclared, in the United States now than at any other time in the past fifteen years,” a senior US official told The New Yorker.

“They’re here in large numbers, actively trying to penetrate a whole host of sectors—government, industry, and academia.”

And the FBI does not have sufficient resources in the field to track down and identify the swarms of spooks, according to the stunning report.

The Bureau has “a math problem. It takes a lot of folks to run surveillance on one individual and make sure you never lose contact,” the official said
