Russian Spy Caught Infiltrating US and ICC, Collecting Info on Ukraine War

The Department of Justice has released secret messages between a Russian spy, Sergey Cherkasov, and his handler, revealing his decades-long cover story as a Brazilian called Viktor Muller Ferreira. Cherkasov boasted about his false identity and getting accepted into a prestigious US university, hoping to gain access to privileged information on US foreign policy. However, his luck ran out when he was denied entry to the International Criminal Court in the Netherlands and was later arrested in Brazil, where he was charged with identity theft and fraud. He was convicted and given 15 years in prison.
