Putin Places Sergey Beseda Under House Arrest by NigeriaZoo: 11:50pm On Mar 11, 2022
Putin 'has placed the head of the FSB's foreign intelligence branch under house arrest because he is furious at security services for failing to warn him' that Ukraine could fiercely resist invasion

• Vladimir Putin has reportedly placed the head of the FSB's foreign service under house arrest, along with his deputy
• The Russian president is said to blame his intelligence agencies for the slow pace of the war in Ukraine, which has seen Russian casualties continue to mount
• Andrey Soldatov, a well-respected author on the Russian secret services, said sources inside the FSB told him of the arrests on Friday
• Embezzlement of funds allocated for subversive and undercover work in Ukraine, as well as false information, is said to be the reason for the arrests
• The FSB security service allegedly told Putin Ukraine was weak, riddled with neo-Nazi groups, and would give up easily if he invaded
• The news comes after Putin was said to have sacked his top generals

Andrey Soldatov, a respected author on the Russian secret services, said sources inside the FSB told him that Sergey Beseda, 68, head of the agency's foreign service, has been placed under arrest on Putin's orders.

Also arrested is Anatoly Bolyukh, Beseda's deputy, according to Soldatov, who said Putin is 'truly unhappy' with the agency - which he ran before becoming president.

Putin is said to blame the agency for intelligence which assured him ahead of the invasion that Russian forces would face only token resistance from the Ukrainian army and that Ukrainians themselves were eager to be rid of their leaders.

Among the reasons for the repressions are the embezzlement of funds allocated for subversive and undercover work in Ukraine, as well as deliberately false information about the political situation in Ukraine.

The FSB security service allegedly handed him intelligence suggesting that Ukraine was weak, riddled with neo-Nazi groups, and would give up easily if attacked.

In fact, the Russian armed forces have faced fierce resistance from Ukrainian soldiers that has battled them to a standstill, inflicted heavy losses, and forced Putin's commanders to resort to brutal siege warfare that has so far yielded few results.

Meanwhile Ukrainian civilians have rallied behind their government and the inspirational leadership of Volodymyr Zelensky, staging protests in areas that Russians have occupied, while sabotaging their tanks and capturing vehicles.

It comes after multiple reports said Putin was 'fuming' at the FSB for assuring him that his soldiers would meet little resistance when invading Ukraine, turning on his intelligence service and blaming them for the blunder.

Earlier today, Putin was said to have sacked his top generals and is 'raging' at the FSB after failed intelligence and poor strategy saw his troops handed a series of embarrassing defeats in the opening days of the war in Ukraine.

Oleksiy Danilov, head of Ukraine's security council, said 'around eight' Russian commanders have been fired since the start of the conflict as Moscow scrambles to change strategy after its attempted 'shock and awe' blitz fell flat.

Soldatov previously told The Times that most FSB agents are brought into the service as legacy hires based on their parents or grandparents being agents and are removed from mainstream schools to be educated in-house.

This is unlike western security services, which tend to recruit from elite universities or colleges to ensure they get 'the cream of the crop'.

Alternatively, he said, the organisation did gather good intelligence - but was simply too afraid to tell Putin the truth, instead doctoring their reports to appease him.

That poor decision making has led to Russia suffering much higher casualties than it expected in its attack, which has now been going on for over two weeks.

It seems Moscow had anticipated little resistance when it sent in light forces backed by airstrikes to seize key targets during the opening days, but was met with punishing counter-attacks.

Reliable numbers are hard to come by, but Ukraine believes Russia has lost up to 12,000 men in a fortnight.

European intelligence puts it lower - between 6,000 and 9,000 - and US lower still, at up to 3,000.

Whichever proves accurate, it is almost certainly more than Putin anticipated when he launched the attack in the hope that fighting would be over in just a few days.

Wow, somebody on here once said that America started underrating Putin after Ukraine survived a week of his invasion. If this news is true, I guess Putin himself is shocked that Ukraine and Ukrainians can last this long.

where are the Putin Nairaland zombies, they should call these a propaganda again, it is clear that the hungry and malnourished Russian troops alongside their outdated Soviet union warplanes and outdated Soviet union weapons are being decimated heavily in Ukraine.
Putin has lost it, the invasion is not going according to plan, he has become paranoid, pissed off, insane and isolated.
It's just a matter of weeks before one of Putin's own inner circle assassinate him

Putin will soon be disgraced, no leader with such character has ever lived through it.

History will repeat itself.
Unfortunately for Putin, he never learns from history.
He was fighting a just cause but he went overboard and now his people are now against him. No man fights against his own family.
Imaging a situation where about 99% of the people you rule are against you.

All he had to do was set up a very very strong military attack base in Crimean
That would have sent a strong message to NATO and Ukraine would have backed out.

Sometimes war is prevented when you use logic.

I don't understand when tabloids like Sun, Dailymail, and Metro became verifiable news sources. And we've seen this happen a lot over the past few days, especially regarding this war.

Mainstream media are clearly biased, but they still put a bit more effort into posting verifiable news or at least well-crafted lies that take some work to debunk, and not these baseless sensational headlines from tabloids.

Please Nairaland should do better.

Copy from BBC / Guardian for the US/EU version of the story.

And copy from RT for the Russian version and CGTN (of China) to balance things up.

Read at least one from either side and then read along the lines to see the truth.

The reason why Russia can't easily defeat Ukraine and will never is not because of Ukraine military, it's because of secret undercover NATO military soldiers disguising as soldiers of Ukraine.

Irrespective of what the public thinks, this Ukraine war will send a strong message to China that one way or the other, they can't win a fight against America and her allies.

The only thing they can compete in is economy war but not military war.

They have eaten his money and abandoned him.

A typical Nigerian politician embezzling the money and telling his oga at the top everything is fine! What a coward!

The other day,we saw you so confident that you abandoned your motorcard and trecked home all by yourself. Could you still do this confidently again after this heavy defeat, Putin?

The next he would employ will be like ' my leader, my leader,let's put up a good fight,ambush the Ukrainian soldiers in kyiv forest and finish them at once for they are weak now after sleeping with Nigerian women'. The idiot will still believe him and give him more ruby to fight! What a fool! grin

Americans that couldn't win in Vietnam, Iraq and defeat taliban in years can't even underrate anyone for not winning in matter of days.

The source is daily mail UK , what were you expecting them to write?

Even to a toddler, it's clear that it won't be an easy ride for Russia. Why won't Putin with all the intelligence know?

This is purely western propaganda to put Ukraine in more danger. We saw attack videos of Russian attacks. Bro, you people should stop goading Zelensky. His military is being destroyed and he thinks it's a comedy.
