Ukraine Poland Tension Promoted from Grey Eminence of the "Russian Influence Machine"


According to Informnapalm.org website - a volunteer initiative to inform Ukrainian citizens and the foreign public about the undeclared war against Ukraine, the annexation of Crimea, and the activities of the Russian special services - the recent tension between Kyiv and Warsaw, with a series of incidents in late 2016 and early 2017, resulted from Russian interference.

Informnapalm.org reported that organisations CyberHunta and Ukrainian Cyber Alliance have got access to emails of Alyaksandr Usowski, a 49-year-old Belarusian citizen described as a "grey eminence of the Russian influence machine in Eastern Europe" and alleged organiser of "anti-Ukrainian stunts" in Poland.

Alyaksandr Usowski is an historian and writer promoting ideas of the "Russian world". He published his pieces on the website of the pro-Russian movement "Ukrainian Choice", lead by Viktor Medvedchuk, believed to be a close friend of Russian President Vladimir Putin.

Usowski had been running his "anti-Ukrainian stunts" in Poland under the auspices of his NGO Eastern European Cultural Initiative (Vychodoeuropska kulturna iniciativa), registered in Slovakia.
