This is Episode 5 of the #FrolovLeaks Saga. To our new readers, we recommend starting with the previous parts of the series in the Hacktivism section where you can find the descriptions and backgrounds. In total, there will be seven episodes, the last one to include the full dump of the correspondence of the Kremlin’s “church-going expert” on Ukraine, Vice-Director of the Institute for CIS Countries, spokesman of the Union of Orthodox Citizens Kirill Frolov.

Thanks to the hacktivists of the Ukrainian Cyber Alliance (UCA), we can now see and analyze the long journey of the political and clerical schemes of the Russian Orthodox Church of the Moscow Patriarchate reflected in Kirill Frolov’s correspondence in the period from 1997 to 2016. Today, we will briefly look at the year 2012 then moving on to the period of 2014-2016 when, in addition to the ideological war and manipulations, the Russian Federation also started a military occupation of Ukraine.

The UCA hacktivists are intently following the Russian backstage’s reception of the #FrolovLeaks materials release. The next publication will be of a special interest to the member of the Council for Foreign and Defense Policy, member of the State Duma of the Russian Federation, Director of the Institute for CIS Countries Konstantin Zatulin. The publications should also give some concern to the famous “church-going” Russian biker, leader of the Night Wolves motorcycle club Alexander “The Surgeon” Zaldostanov, a Putin’s minion and a close friend of Kirill Frolov. We also noticed certain interest on the part of Archpriest Vsevolod Chaplin who recommends Frolov to deny everything in the usual “This is all a lie!” manner, at the same time playing a humble PR expert who is “Not ashamed of anything described in that correspondence”.

So, Frolov’s correspondence in 2012 (email dump) reflects the main events of that period: mock elections of the President of the Russian Federation, parliamentary elections in Ukraine, events in the Ukrainian Orthodox Church of the Moscow Patriarchate and the  Pussy Riot scandal.

Pussy Riot is a Russian punk rock band who on February 21, 2012, performed a punk prayer titled “Virgin Mary, Mother of God, Put Putin Away” in the Cathedral of Christ the Savior. Note that it was Kirill Frolov and people close to him who wrote to the Investigative Committee of the Russian Federation demanding the band to be prosecuted.

In 2012, Kirill Frolov’s cooperation with law enforcement agencies and government authorities increased significantly. Among other things, we note his correspondence with someone named Vasiliy Vasilievich (platon2989@rambler.ru), apparently a supervisor at the law enforcement or state security structures. The correspondence continued from March 31, 2011 till October 14, 2012 (294 messages). Frolov sent him detailed reports of the meetings with foreign diplomats and journalists, Orthodox activists and priests. In his messages to this addressee, Frolov even described in great detail his meetings with Patriarch Kirill Gundyayev, the head of the Russian Orthodox Church.

A couple of quotes:

“His Grace Agaphangel wants to send this article to Legoyda as if “for approval”, please make sure that Legoyda is informed that this article should be approved without any questioning and promoted in the central mass media of Russia! [since December 24, 2015, Vladimir Legoyda held the position of Chairman of the Synodal Department for Church Public and Media Relations of the Moscow Patriarchate – IN] (21.01.12);

 “…Please also be informed that we have recruited 200 persons for the rallies to chant “Our Patriarch Kirill – God has blessed him”. I am working on increasing their number, planning a trip to Kyiv” (21.07.12);

“Only Loginov could leak information to Pavlovsky – he worked in the Foundation for Effective Politics and is trying to sniff out my contacts” (9.07.12).

Although Frolov sent such discreditable messages about political expert K. Loginov, his partner in a number of clerical-political projects, to many people including the Patriarch, this is what he wrote to Loginov himself: “By the way, during these months I mentioned you in my recommendations only in a positive way, as a key person. Again, please do not believe the cheats, even those you consider to be your friends – I do not rule out a political version, however, a personal jealousy motive is also possible”.

Frolov receives interesting assignments from “Vasiliy Vasilievich”: “An Orthodox public reaction to the Pussy Riot case must be urgently arranged. We have to discuss our priority actions in the nearest future”. Later, this materialized in a number of aggressive actions on the part of Frolov and his associates.

Another example – Frolov is coordinating the appointment of Vladimir Bukarsky, a pro-Russian activist from Moldova, with the Presidential Administration referred to as “Staraya Sq.” by Frolov.

What does this freak have to do with this? The Association of Orthodox Experts is a serious organization, I was at the Staraya Square yesterday, you are being closely monitored! Delete this! Change it!

From: Kirill Frolov <frolov_moskva@mail.ru>

Subject: the future

To: Vladimir Bukarsky <v-b1973@mail.ru>

I have really been to the Staraya Sq. They are truly interested in you. You have to understand that to say openly that we do not care about their worthless lives will be TOO MUCH. You have written a harsh enough message already.

A better message will be “Riot Police – Act!” If you say “kill’, it would look as if we are enjoying this. We are no sadists, violence is necessary, but as the “least-evil solution”.

This is how Putin puts it. So does the Patriarch.

We are experts. And we strike in style.

Please listen to me. You have your future ahead of you.

My hugs and congratulations, but please hear what I am saying.

He contacts Donetsk where the “Russkiy Blok” (Russian Bloc) political party and Donbasskaya Rus (Donbas Russia) NGO, as well as other pro-Russian organizations, hold their events — Donetsk celebrated the Day of Unity with Russia, Regional Integration panel discussion.

Frolov’s contact is Sergej Buntovskij, a “Russian movement” visionary, leader of Donetsk municipal organization of the Russkiy Blok party.

An action group “Donbas for the Eurasian Union (EAEU)” is formed (Donbas for the Eurasian Union – about the movement.DOC), which is supervised by A. Bredihin through the Cossacks. The Donetsk People’s Republic (DPR) flag on the wall is another reminder of the fact that the war was not triggered by the Maidan, it had been started by the Russian intelligence agencies much earlier. The photo was made in February 2012.

Frolov pursues his ambitions to participate in political processes: “I could be made member of the Presidential Council for Civil Society and Human Rights, there are 13 vacancies now due to the “white ribbon” deserters. Am I worse than someone like Oreshkin? Please assist”. “I am as good as Lebedev, Kholmogorov, Wasserman or Shevchenko! I want to speak at the rally!”

For that purpose, he writes a message to S. Govorukhin, head of Putin’s election campaign team, and offers his resources. He also sends him an interview with Metropolitan Agaphangel of Odesa — interview.DOC.

Frolov names the coordinators of the Association of Orthodox Experts

Pro-Russian activists in Ukraine are also involved in Putin’s support campaign. For example, S. Moiseev from Kharkiv is planning a rally at the Russian consulate:

 “…we need a contingency reserve; some of the Cossack leaders or other social activists may also demand money. Why? First, nobody would believe that Moscow allocates nothing to the leaders, whatever I say, people will think that Moiseev received money from Moscow and is not willing to share. Next time, no leaders will respond.

List of organizations:

Chernobyl Veterans Council, Proskurin

Russkoe Veche (Russian Assembly), Makarov

Margelov Followers, Gurin

Cossack units: Vernoye, Sloboda Ukraine, Lozova, Chuhuyiv, Kutepov’s Fund, Drozdov’s guys.

To motivate the leaders, we actually need about 1000 UAH per leader,

Including Rus Triedinaya (Triune Russia), we have ten organizations which makes 10000 UAH.

TOTAL: 122500 UAH or approximately 15-16 thousand USD.

We will arrive with the flags of organizations, posters, newspapers, leaflets and other creative ideas”.

After a failed rally where few people showed up, Moiseev again writes about money explaining his failures with lack of financing. He should have already realized that a pro-Russian movement did not take off in Kharkiv not for lack of money but for the absence of social grounds.

Frolov is thinking more and more of himself, for example, he sends the following note to V. Voronin, a Ukrainian official, First Deputy Chairman of the State Archival Service of Ukraine, partner and co-author of D. Tabachnyk and his communication channel to the top authorities of the Russian Federation: “Look, why would I need Zatulin for the rest of my life? I have to work in the Presidential Administration!”. Other message: “Now another youngster, Sasha Bosykh, has been appointed Head of Government Commission on Dialogue with the Young People of Caucasus. I, the social activist, am left out again”.

He writes to A. Grachev, Deputy Chief of the Presidential Directorate for Interregional Relations and Cultural Contacts, ex-Consul General of Russia in Odesa: “We have to give something to Metropolitan Pavel. Kharkiv? Archbishop Ioanafan must also get something – he is the most pro-Moscow blogger in Ukraine who has been openly condemning Drabinko for many years. What could it be? It must be a large metropolia. If not Kharkiv, then Zhytomyr. Or we can place Sergiy to Zhytomyr and give Odesa to Ioanafan – he has a sense of humor, he is a blogger and a missionary actively communicating with journalists and the public, Odesa will like that”.

It is interesting how such citizens of Russia as Kirill Frolov are meddling with the matters of the Ukrainian church.

He mentions Tabachnyk and Voronin often in his messages, for example:

From: Kirill Frolov <frolov_moskva@mail.ru>

Subject: Tabachnyk

To: marina <ima1646362@yandex.ru>

Why have I paid attention to the Minister of Education of Ukraine D. Tabachnyk? He is in very close contact with the Presidential Administration of the Russian Federation, as is his assistant, Deputy Chairman of the State Archival Service of Ukraine Viktor Voronin – that one is recklessly pro-Russian. Tabachnyk writes all those anti-Bandera books. Also, Tabachnyk and Voronin like me, because I am in contact with Archbishop Seraphim (Zaliznytskiy), who used in serve in Bila Tserkva and is now Archpriest of the Cathedral on the Yauza in Moscow – he has been driven out by the Ukrainian nationalists, Archbishop Seraphim baptized Tabachnyk and made him a true man. Before his Holy Baptism, Tabchnyk was an ordinary pragmatist supporting Kuchma and afterwards he became a Russophile.

In one of his messages, Kirill Frolov lays down Russia’s key interests in Ukraine: “a) Ukraine joining the Customs Union and then the Eurasian Union; b) official status of two languages – Russian and Ukrainian; c) democratization and federalization of Ukraine, in more honest terms – maximal weakening of the Ukrainian state; d) cementing of Ukraine’s position as the canonical territory of the Moscow Patriarchate; e) establishment of the Black Sea Fleet on its historical base in Sevastopol and maximal development of its infrastructure; f) discontinuation of attempts to falsify history and Banderite trends in education and upbringing, restoration of the all-Russian self-identification of the triune Russian people; and g) Russian control over the gas transportation system and key industries of Ukraine; h) military union, eradication of Banderite trends in the Ukrainian army and security services”.

He distributes the correspondence of allegedly one of the pro-Ukrainian priests of the Ukrainian Church of the Moscow Patriarchate – we cannot evaluate its authenticity, therefore, will not quote it here. At the same time, we can confirm the authenticity of Frolov’s dump, thus we can quote him saying that this discrediting correspondence became disclosed thanks to Bishop Ionafan (Yeletskykh) of Tulchyn for whom this “spirit child” works at the media company Liviy Bereg. From another message we understand that he refers to Sonya Koshkina: “…Sonya Koshkina is a pocket journalist of Vice Prime Minister Kolesnikov, for her to fly to Thailand is like to go out for breakfast… She was the one who took the correspondence to Archbishop Ionafan and to Chalenko. Smart Sonya – got everything out of … and then leaked it. Thumbs up!”

General Pedchenko, Chief of the General Staff of Ukraine, continued his activities aiming to assist the Russian Federation. Frolov writes to Alexey Mukhin, Director General of the Centre for Political Information, about Pedchenko requesting a meeting with Sergei Ivanov, Chief of Staff of the Presidential Administration of Russia: “It is entirely possible that he becomes Chief of Staff of the Presidential Administration of Ukraine soon… Pedchenko is not just a pro-Russian top official, he is closely connected to Oleksandr Yanukovych, son of the President of Ukraine, who is now putting together a group of people personally loyal to Yanukovych, and placing them at key positions – in the Security Service of Ukraine, the Ministry of Defense, etc. And this is not all. Please also be informed that H. Pedchenko is not just going to church, he has started confessions with Archpriest Andrey Novikov. Of course, the Archbishop will never break the seal of confession in respect of personal sins, however, he can share strategic information as well as influence Pedchenko for Russia’s benefit”.

In another message he says that he is connected to O. Yanukovych via his associate, General Abrosimov.

His messages show Frolov’s increasing radicalism: “there will be no stepping back in Moscow. Only forward, to Berlin!”, “separatists – to the gallows!”, “the enemy has been eliminated”, and so on. He starts joint events with Enteo, a known agent provocateur. He vents his hate and contempt towards any opinion which is different from his own. In his messages, he trashes many Russian Orthodox activists and priests. In this correspondence, there are some futile attempts to resist Frolov’s insanity, for example, Yury Belanovskiy writes the following:

“In three years, Kirill has provided conditions for the destruction of everything which existed in the domain of missionary activities, catechesis and work with young people while Patriarch Alexy was in power. It will be stupid to deny it. He is methodically working on creating a bureaucratic establishment, encouraging ass-kissing and total departure from reality!.. Kirill, stop acting like a Komsomol member. If you do not want to criticize clerical hierarchy – then don’t. But don’t deny the truth at the same time! You have to understand that all your protectors and friends will throw you out like garbage if, all of a sudden, they find they no longer need you. I have seen such things happen!”

It is funny that in his correspondence Frolov spreads gossip even about the private life of the Putins who were still a couple then. Obviously, he continues along the line of fake stories about Lyudmila Putina’s pregnancy, that started to circulate in the church circles after her absence from the Easter celebrations.

I saw her yesterday at the reception in the Russian Orthodox University.

She seems to have had her baby already, she looks as if her belly is still full of water.

By the way, Lyuda Putina is about to have a baby soon. PVCh [probably referring to Archpriest Vsevolod Chaplin- IN] should wish her a righteous delivery, she is 54, after all.

And Valya, I can barely restrain my co-racers from distributing the press release on their own, I keep explaining to them that the “jus primae noctis” belongs to IFR.

Best regards,

The correspondence shows that there were two pro-Russian activity centers in Ukraine – Donetsk and Crimea, of which we became witnesses after the events of 2014. The Sevastopol branch of the Institute of CIS Countries was very active, for example, it hosted several visits of the journalistic school with students and young journalists from Crimea, Luhansk Region and other regions of Ukraine. Among the participants, we can find the names of Oksana Shkoda, political expert Dmitriy Vydrin, Konstantin Zatulin, Russian MP, and others. The lists of mass media include Novoross.info (Sergey Georgiyev, Alexey Goncharov) — List 30.03; List of attendees with origins; List of attendees_alphabetical13062011; Links; List of Odesa journalists. After the trainings, the attendees rated Frolov rather poorly, he responded with an outpour of accusations of a conspiracy against him personally. He informs Zatulin about Crimean consul V. Andreyev reporting on him. And having been dismissed as instructor in one of the sessions, Frolov complains about Zatulin “to the top”.

Frolov, who calls himself in one of his messages “the Patriarch’s favorite”, was one evening received by the head of the Russian Orthodox Church Kirill Gundyayev who charged him with a media special op. Frolov is asked to hush up the so-called “dusty case” — a scandalous court case exposing Gundyayev’s lavish lifestyle and an apartment in a premium-class housing estatecovered in dust from repairs in a neighboring apartment which coincided with the Pussy Riot case and another scandal around Patriarch’s expensive watch “erased through Photoshop”. In that meeting Frolov also put forward suggestions about interfering with the affairs of the Ukrainian church and politics and was promised assistance and protection. The result was the appearance of the text under the title Who2 (an urgent assignment by the Patriarch) written under the pseudonym A. Globa suggested by the Gundyayev himself (we believe that this is a reference to the pseudonym of Archimandrite Alexander Globa, a friend of priest Yu. Shevchenko, the defendant in the “dusty case”). The text was distributed by the mass media and loyalist bloggers. Afterwards Frolov reported to his customer: “Your Holiness! A. Globa’s article caused a great stir, the mission has been accomplished. Standing by for the next “military operations”.

Confidential. I have described your new level of relations with His Holiness to Zatulin in great detail. I mentioned that you were received by His Holiness for an hour while Metropolitans were kept waiting – I would like to specifically emphasize that here I quoted Kuksov, not you. This had an effect on Zatulin who started telling me that the Patriarch can only trust the most loyal people one of whom is Frolov. I supported that to the utmost. So, as you see, I can make it worth your while. But remember: I learned everything from KUKSOV.

Your friend,

Archpriest Andrey Novikov

From Frolov’s correspondence, it becomes clear that Metropolitan Hilarion Alfeyev is sponsored, as well as influenced, by Leonid Mikhailovich Sevastianov who was sent for training to Rome and Washington by Gundyayev when he was still Metropolitan of Smolensk and Kaliningrad. Immediately after that, Sevastianov became a co-founder and director general of StratinvestRu international company that provided consulting services on all business matters (commerce, legal, tax, financial) in such industries as power production, communications, transportation, and infrastructure. Since 2009, he has been a member of the board of directors of PROTEK OJSC pharmaceutical company and head of St. Gregory the Theologian Charity Foundation. Frolov plans to engage Sevastianov for eventual financing of the “humanitarian mission” in Crimea intended to “expand recruiting opportunities” and to influence the Ukrainian parliamentary elections. Frolov also looks to introduce Sevastianov to Sergey Gavrilov, Deputy of the State Duma from the Communist Party of the Russian Federation, a member of inter-factional group on the protection of Christian values.

Frolov also proposed cooperating with V. Medvedchuk whom he had regarded as enemy until then.

Please assign me a task related to Medvedchuk! In any case, today he is the only one in Ukraine who can turn everything towards Russia and block all those Drabinkos and corrupt politicians from Bankova. He seems to have written everything correctly and to make correct proposals. Maybe, it is time to start communicating with him, as Yanukovych, I guess, has already dumped everybody?

Here’s the link: http://vybor-ua.org.ua/index.php

The administrative activity in the Ukrainian Orthodox Church of the Moscow Patriarchate was picking up speed – synods were held, decisions made, and Frolov was closely monitoring it all, writing recommendations that were not followed as often as they used to be. The resistance within the Ukrainian Orthodox Church was running strong.

On May 15 Yanukovych will be in Moscow. As you know, the West has abandoned him, and Interpol is about to start searching for his money.

He has nowhere to go except Moscow.

It is critical that he visits His Holiness where everything should be settled.

It is a unique chance! It must not be wasted

• Kirill, in view of your current relations with His Holiness, please settle the following matter with him (in consistency with your offer):

A 100% our man, Archimandrite Veniamin (Pogrebnyi) (former Vladimir) needs to be assigned to the Dniprodzerzhynsk cathedra. This way, we are killing two birds with one stone:

1. We can be sure that a large industrial center of Ukraine together with the rural areas will pass to the Patriarch’s eparch and, with my assistance, will get beyond the influence of the Western Ukrainians who now rule the Dniprodzerzhynsk deanery as well as get rid of those sodomites in the government of district deaneries
2. Me and Father Tarasiy (if we matter in any way to the Patriarch, of course) will have more freedom and can be relatively safe in terms of not being defrocked suddenly (two such attempts have already been initiated from Kyiv via Orachev), my affairs will be protected from the whims of the Metropolia. We will be able to create a true Patriarch’s eparchy!

• Orachev can be moved, for example, to the Berdyansk cathedra that is now vacant
• I am going to discuss it with Metropolitan Agaphangel, but I would like to hear your opinion after you discuss this matter with His Holiness. We have to appoint Patriarch’s bishops, and we have to do it quick. We have to accomplish everything in this session where we will have the majority.

For the time being, Archbishop Ionafan (Yeletskykh) is an impermanent member of the Synod of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church of the Moscow Patriarchate which is a great help to Metropolitan Agaphangel. It would be logical to use this factor to promote pro-Moscow monks to bishops, for example, Hegumen Silan – Rector of Bakhchisaray Cave Monastery, and Archimandrite Nafanail (Krykota) – Rector of Pochayiv Theological Seminary, member of the “Canonical” Commission of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church of the Moscow Patriarchate.

Father Yevgeniy Maksimenko is Frolov’s regular informer on the situation in the Ukrainian Orthodox Church of the Moscow Patriarchate, he constantly writes about homosexuality, theft, etc. For example, this message refers to Bishop Theodosius, the contact person of Russian terrorists Kulygina and Girkin, who was the subject of the investigation by the journalists of the Myrotvorets Center.

It is an Afghan vets’ church near the Lavra. Yesterday there was a TV story about the bishop who serves there. Chervonopisskiy, the leader of the Afghan War veterans in Ukraine, will ask Patriarch Kirill to assign a decent, faithful priest there. Also, about that bishop – they said on TV that within eighteen months he bought a Land Cruiser 200. Besides, that fool showed them his office and living room – small but expensively furnished. Also, his kitchen with vodka and champagne. He said he never drank but kept it for his visitors. They are jerks. We need a reform and a clean-up.

Frolov justifies his actions by “public appeals” signed by Igor Mykhaylovych Druz, Chairman of the NGO Narodniy Sobor (People’s Council) of Ukraine; Aleksey Sergeyevich Selivanov, Chief Ataman of the International NGO Vernoe Kazachestvo (Loyal Cossacks), secretary of the Coordination Board for Cossack Movement Development in Ukraine under the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine; Aleksandr Vitalievich Prokopenko, Chairman of the High Council of All-Ukraine Union Russkoe Sodruzhestvo (Russian Association); Yuriy Nikolayevich Yegorov, Chairman of the NGO Pravoslavniy Vybor (Orthodox Choice); Vladimir Ivanovich Matveyev, member of International Association of Energy Economists (IAEE), head of the informational and publishing department of Kyiv Assembly of the Nobility; Sergey Anatolievych Syrovatskiy, associate history professor; Sergey Moiseyev, Chairman of the Board of Kharkiv NGO Rus Triedinaya (Triune Russia), editor of the Rus Triedinaya newspaper – APPLICATION; APPEAL

It turns out that a Russian MP, member of the Communist Party Sergey Gavrilov is planning a visit to Germany to take part in the Athos conference. He intends to participate in the Ethical Case of the Athos and Challenges of the Secular World panel discussion, and Frolov prepares a speech for him, Service of the Athos Monks and Meanings, Ideals and Tasks of Service of the Russian Elite. Frolov speaks against Stalinism and for vacating the Lenin Mausoleum, however, he serves the bizarre governmental system of the Russian Federation combining Orthodox faith with Communist manifestations, a cult of victims and torturers.

He writes a text condemning the priests of the Russian Orthodox Church supporting protest sentiment and distributes it massively – Speaking of the Bolotnaya Lobby in the Russian Orthodox Church. However, when journalist Roman Nosikov wants to publish it, Frolov edits the text heavily – only this version.2docx. He is afraid of being banned for interfering with the church affairs, as he is aware that his actions are wrong and even expects certain punishment for them.

Frolov’s mail of that period contains correspondence with the prosecutor’s office, he was the one who initiated a criminal case against Pussy Riot and made a number of other notable complaints to the prosecution agencies – about the “awarding” to Gundyayev the Silver Shoe (an award for notable blunders established by the opposition radio station Silver Rain), against Belkovsky and others. He conducted some of his actions together with Dmitry Tsorionov, the notorious Enteo.

http://vbenedict.livejournal.com/564058.html. This is a story by Vadim Venediktov, Belkovsky’s adept, an enemy of Patriarch Kirill and VVP. So, they are trying to recruit Dima Tsorionov. The Bolotnaya oligarch V. Bondarenko has a lot of money.

Obviously, Tsorionov wavered at the sight of the money. What can we do? There is a way out, and an Orthodox one. Dmitry Tsorionov goes to St. Thomas Cathedral on Kantemirovskaya St. where the legendary Father Daniel Sysoyev once served. Tsorionov takes communion often, strictly visits Sunday services, he is terrified of being banned from the Church. It will be logical if the government helps Father Ivan Popadinets, the Father Superior of the Cathedral, to build a large cathedral dedicated to St. Prophet Daniel which was designed by martyr Father Daniel Sysoyev. This has to be done quick, the vain Tsorionov will not introduce Bondarenko to Father Ivan while Father Ivan, if asked and helped with building the cathedral, will ask Tsorionov to stop fooling around and rubbing shoulders with traitors, for fear of being banned from the Church – according to the canon, Belkovsky, Bondarenko, Brazhnikov are to be banned for defamation of Patriarch Kirill, the Church and the holy icons (exhibition at the Vinzavod).

We have to fight for Tsorionov, we must give no gifts to Belkovsky’s scum.

In the Institute for CIS Countries, Frolov is transferred from the Ukrainian section to the church field with which he is very familiar. He starts promoting Russia’s invasive interests in all countries where the Russian Orthodox Church is present: “thanks to His Holiness Patriarch Kirill, an Orthodox eparchy served by Bishop Theodosius has been established in Kyrgyzstan. The Kyrgyz, at least those in the north, are religiously undecided, therefore, an Orthodox mission there will be a key factor of restoring Kyrgyzstan within the space of the “Big Russia”, the Eurasian Union. Such restoration is necessary, it is self-evident”.

At the age of 99, Patriarch Maxim of Bulgaria passed away.

Now the matter of his successor is at hand. In order to secure the pro-Russian position of the Bulgarian Orthodox Church and to prevent interference by the Constantinople Patriarchate, we have to clearly and strongly support Metropolitan Kirill of Varna, a loyal follower of the Russian Orthodox Church and His Holiness Patriarch Kirill of Moscow and all Russia.

The Metropolitan of Varna is young and vigorous and, when elected the Patriarch, he will be able to influence Bulgaria’s political orientation in favor of Russia.

Thus, the year 2012 brought a lot of significant events to Kirill Frolov, the subject of our investigation. He was instrumentsl in the hate campaign and criminal persecution of Pussy Riot, took part in events involving maverick groups. However, his influence in Ukraine reduced considerably, his circle of contacts did not broaden in 2012 and, probably, that was the reason why other agents were assigned to this field. The years from 2013 to 2016 would bring about a show-down and seal Frolov’s fate.
