MI6 Chief Invites Russians to Spy for UK, Puts Putin Under Pressure

MI6 chief Richard Moore made a public plea to disaffected Russians to spy for the UK, urging them to take a stand against Russian President Vladimir Putin's regime and offering them the opportunity to share secrets with MI6. Moore expressed optimism about Ukraine's ability to prevail against the Russian invasion and highlighted the escalating tensions between Russia and Ukraine, including the termination of a crucial grain export deal. He also revealed that Russian mercenary group Wagner's leader, Yevgeny Prighozin, is alive and at liberty following their recent armed uprising, suggesting that Putin is under pressure. Moore warned African states with connections to Wagner that if Prighozin could betray Putin, he could betray them as well.
