Our mission

In 2000 we launched agentura.ru because Putin just became president and we believed he would increase the role of the security services in Russian society. More than twenty years later, it’s still relevant.

The present version of the site was launched on January 3, 2022. The previous version is available on https://archive.agentura.ru/english/
