According to The Insider, before leaving for Austria, these two ordered food with delivery to the address of the underground apartment in the building of the Russian Foreign Intelligence in Jasenew near Moscow. And judging by phone accounts, they were in direct contact with the lecturer of the SWR Academy, who advises intelligence officers in the field of espionage in German -speaking countries.

At first glance, neither Olga Kukła, nor Maksym Czewik should arouse any suspicion – in their biographies there is no point in connecting with special services. Although even with the most cursory control some questions would arise: for example, why Olga Kukławho had never related to journalism, suddenly decided to become a Tass correspondent in Vienna? She was born in Tyumen, graduated from the famous Moscow university of MGIMO in the field of “Energy Economy”, as a student, she was undergoing internship at Gazprom and Transnieft's gas companies, graduated from MA studies at the University of Leipzig and started working at the Russian group Nowatek. There are no signs of a puppet work either at the TASS agency, nor in journalism at all.
They came with her to Vienna Maksym Czewik He also made an extraordinary phrase in his biography – he became a journalist from the kerosene, but a little earlier. He was born in Nowosibirsk in the family of nuclear engineer, his mother Jelena deals with business. At school, Maksym learned very well, took part in extracurricular activities and cultivated karate. After graduating from school, he joined MGIMO to the Faculty of International Relations, where he also studied German and oratory art.
After obtaining a diploma, Czerwiak made an internship in Rosneft, and then he became a correspondent of TASS in Beijing. He sent only four messages from China, before he was referenced to Moscow, but managed to become famous with an interview in which he stated:
Some media constantly factory about the so -called human rights problems in China, but during my trip I found out that this is not true
In 2024, before the World Youth Festival in Moscow, Czerewik and the head of the TASS office in the Balkans Stanisław Rabiwoda managed the propaganda project “New superheroes”, in which guests from Africa, Europe, the USA and trusted man of Putin in the so -called Vladimir Tarnienko talked about how they see the future. The cherry also composes music, and one of his compositions entitled “Persona Non Grata” may soon be prophetic.

Like many other spies, a puppet and cherry betrayed love for pizza. As the food supply database shows, Olga Kukła and Maksym Czerewik ordered a pizza and drinks nine times to the address of the apartment in a skyscraper at 22 Taruska Street in Jasieniewo near Moscow. In this building, built in 2012, 220 families of Russian intelligence officers lives – the seat of SWR is located nearby.
The apartment on the 14th floor, to which the pizza was delivered, is a SWR underground apartment. – It is a four -room apartment converted into a small school room. Is in the resources of the SWR Operational Board. There are computers, teaching aids, a kitchen and a seating room with a sofa. In the apartment there are preparations for adaptation and learning foreign languages for intelligence officers getting ready to go abroad – says our informant in special services.
In addition to the delivery of the pizza to Taruska Street, orders were also placed from the phone number of the cherry on Jasnogorska 21 in Jasieniewo. Here, in turn, there are service SWR flats. In 2011, the inhabitants of Jasieniew protested against the construction of this skyscraper, organized pickets, wrote petitions for the Foreign Intelligence Service, the Town Hall, and even set fire to the construction crane, but they did not succeed.
As telephone bills show, before leaving for Austria, Czerewik was in constant contact with Svetlana Striełkowska. Earlier she was an officer of a Russian intelligence at the Aerofłot office in Germany, and then went to didactic work at the Academy of Intelligence Service of Russia. – Nobody knows Germany, Austria and Switzerland, their habits, folklore and culture better than it – says our intelligence informant.

Already in Soviet times, Austria was one of the key areas of the KGB, because in this country there are dozens of headquarters of the largest international organizations, such as the International Atomic Energy Agency, OPEC, OSCE and others.
The KGB residency in Vienna was managed for a long time by gene. Wiaczesław Keworkowwho spy on the cover of the TASS correspondent. In parallel, he supervised the work of correspondents of the “Komsomolska True” newspaper. After the collapse of the USSR, Keworkov was not referred to Moscow and continued to spy on in Austria, and then moved to Germany, where he lived until his death in 2017.

Nowadays, almost nothing has changed. TASS not only deals with espionage, but is also one of the main propaganda tools of the Kremlin. The agency often distributes disinformation invented by the head of the press office of SVR Sergei Guszkow. For example, in July this year. Tass, citing sources in SWR, gave false information that representatives of the United States and Great Britain organized a secret meeting in one of the Alpine resorts, where they discussed the issue of replacing the President of Ukraine Zelans. In August, again citing SWR, Tass published “Message” about the fact that German Chancellor Friedrich Merz is to be possessed by the idea of revenge for the defeat of Nazi Germany by the Soviet Union.

– There are people who employed there during the time of Leonid Brezhnev. Then they praised the wise andropic policy, Czernienski and Gorbachev, and during the time of Jeltsin they even repainted with Democrats. Every year, President Putin awards TASS employees with orders and medals. Last year 34 people received the awards. It was interesting to observe how some of the awarded journalists stood at attention like soldiers – says one of the participants of last year's ceremony.

The guardian of “journalists” Tass Popowa and Dawidjan thrown out in 2024 was most likely the first secretary of the Russian embassy in Austria Andrey Proswirnikowwhich since 2016 spied in Vienna, and earlier served in the military unit 54939, liquidated in 2015. This unit dealt with disseminating disinformation and monitoring of social networks, and its office was located in Moscow in the so -called House of SWR residents at Gonczarna Street.
After the journalists were expelled, the name of Proswirnikov disappeared from the list of diplomats at the Russian embassy. On August 18, the Russian ambassador in Vienna Dmitry Lubiński was referred to Moscow and a decree of Putin appointed deputy minister of foreign affairs.
Two weeks ago, another loud spy scandal broke out in Austria: Local counterintelligence stopped the high -ranking employee of the OMV energy company. Special services watched him for several months and noticed that he often meets a diplomat from the Russian embassy. A search was carried out at the detainee's house and many confidential OMV documents were found. The Austrian authorities demand from Russia to abolish the diplomatic immunity of this diplomat – according to the Vienna Convention, he will be automatically recognized as persona non grata.

The apartment at Taruska Street, from which the orders were placed by a puppet and cherry, did not desert after their departure. Now a certain one has lived in it Aleksiej Jaszin. From the age of 17, he participates in the annual ski marathon, devoted to the memory of fallen employees of the Federal Security Service, and in the army he was a distinctive soldier and commanded a unit.

Currently, Jaszin serves in a special unit “curtain” SWR, which during visits to dangerous countries protects high -ranking Russian officials, generals, and high -level managers of large state -owned enterprises. In September 2020, Jaszin accompanied a large group of employees of Gazpromnieft and News in Baghdad, and in August 2022 he protected a secret load from Damascus. On board the Syrian Airlines aircraft there were more five fighters of “Crows” and a SWR officer.
