Episode Details

A Russian dissident turned informant, Igor Rogov, just received a seven-year prison sentence in Poland for spying for the FSB — the first such conviction in Europe since the Ukraine war began. He admitted to feeding intel on other Russian exiles, Polish officials, and resettlement groups to Moscow, while his wife got three years for helping him. Rogov also faced charges for attempting to ship explosives through Poland. Once an opposition figure tied to Navalny’s movement, he now admits he was recruited by Russian intelligence years before fleeing Russia. The case underscores how deep Kremlin espionage stretches into exile communities — and comes as Poland pushes the EU for harsher visa restrictions on Russians amid rising security fears.
