Fráňa Šrámek warned in a shared post by Radio Free America about a serious security crisis. He wrote that after an hour-long phone call between Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin, the Russian president announced confirmation of collaboration between their administrations and intelligence services. According to Šrámek, discussions about the future of Ukraine took place without the participation of Ukraine or European countries. He claimed that Trump's envoys Jared Kushner and Steve Witkoff pressured Ukraine with the threat of completely halting the transfer of American intelligence information. He also noted that FBI Director Kash Patel planned a trip to Russia in mid-October, where he was to meet with the Russian counterintelligence agency FSB, while the U.S. government and FBI did not comment on the details. Šrámek wrote that American lawmakers had urged Patel to cancel the trip in connection with the phone call on October 9, warning against Russian espionage and operations influencing public opinion. He described Trump's actions as treachery and claimed that the American president was handing Ukraine, its European allies, and the United States over to the Kremlin. He stated that the United States had been taken over by an international criminal syndicate and would need help. #bezpečnost #Zrada #Ukrajina (translated)

Vojtěch Boháč wrote that twenty-six-year-old Ilja Meškov, who according to him left Russia eight years ago, graduated from the University of Economics in Prague and a school in Texas, and after six years in the Czech Republic obtained Czech citizenship. According to Boháč, he became a partner in a Czech company focused on investments in European data centers for artificial intelligence within two years, responsible for venture capital. Boháč stated that Meškov's father is a Russian military colonel who heads a department at Bauman Moscow State Technical University, and his mother previously worked in the army and at this university. She is now, according to him, retired and has a Czech visa since this year; she travels to Prague as the wife of an active Russian colonel and career military officer. Boháč also claimed that ordinary Russians find it very difficult to obtain a visa to the Czech Republic after 2022. Citing an article that he believes described the story, Boháč posed questions about how Meškov's mother managed to obtain a visa, who has access to key data infrastructure in the EU, and how to assess the privacy of young Russians from military families who, according to him, have never actually distanced themselves from the activities of their relatives. #Investice #Kyberbezpečnost #UměláInteligence (translated)
