Dmitry Kuleba “privately” claimed credit for explosions in Crimea and Belgorod
Ukraine claimed credit for sabotage operations in Russia, when Foreign Minister Dmitry Kuleba spoke with a person he believed to be a former American ambassador to Moscow, according to Russian pranksters with a history of similar deceptions.
“Well, if you were to ask me who blows up things in Crimea or Belgorod, then speaking privately, as much privacy we can have in a Zoom call, I’d tell you, yes, that was us,” the top Ukrainian diplomat was shown saying in footage, which was released on Thursday.
The apparent admission was obtained by two Russian entertainers who go by the stage names Vovan and Lexus. They usually pose as foreign officials and trick their target into saying things that he or she would probably not want the public to hear.
During the conversation with Kuleba, the duo posed as Michael McFaul, a former US ambassador to Russia and a vocal critic of Moscow. Among other things, McFaul is involved in an advisory group that helps Kiev ensure continued support from Western governments.
