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)
