    It has emerged that the charge against Canadian military intelligence officer Matthew Lobar for allegedly leaking secrets to Ukraine grew out of a 2023 investigation into claims that Pugliese was a Russian spy—claims based on the very dossier Bianchin has debunked.

    The one where the investigated person claims they were ordered to do so, and had previously blown the whistle against superiors on an unrelated issue?

    I feel like we’re watching a spy thriller from the outside.

    Where in Italy are you from?

    Venice.

    A place that’s way more famous than actually populated, so also sus. I would hope The Walrus cross-referenced several very identifiable details that are in this story, like education and employment, but they didn’t actually say they did.
