Russia Nabs Ukrainian Spy, Says He Will Be Sent Home
The Federal Security Service, or FSB, the main KGB successor agency, said in a statement that the man, Yuri Ivanchenko, was detained on Saturday.
The agency said Thursday that Ivanchenko traveled to Moscow to offer his services to the FSB. It claimed that the CIA had helped the Ukrainian security service prepare Ivanchenko for the mission aimed at eventually exposing his Russian contacts.
The FSB said Ivanchenko, who reportedly solicited his services once before, in 2014, will be sent home and not face any charges.
