USA: A separatist movement in California was financed by Russia’s intelligence

US authorities unveiled a federal indictment, according to which, the movement for the department in California was organized by Russian intelligence in order to cause unrest in the United States. The separatist movement in California was supervised directly by Russia, reports Business Insider.

Federal prosecutors argue that a Russian citizen, whose connections with the FSB were established by the investigation, ensured financing and advice of the group.

Against the founder of the group, who denies the offense, the prosecution was not brought forward.
