Even though the issue of the Russian invasion failed miserably, the US has a new theory of the plot for the Ukrainian coup

KIEV – United States (US) intelligence believes that former lawmaker Oleg Tsaryov could become the leader of the Ukrainian puppet regime after the successful Russian invasion caused the Kiev government to fall.

Britain’s Financial Times reported the intelligence leak on Tuesday (15/2/2022) even though Russian troops had begun to withdraw from near the Ukrainian border.

Citing an anonymous source in Western intelligence services, the outlet said Tsaryov, who served in Ukraine’s parliament until 2014, would be appointed head of state.
