I admire the man's courage to finally speak out but he was a member of the FSB.

It should be no surprise to him the lengths they will go to to track him down.

I can respect him for drawing a line somewhere, especially at risk to his life and well-being. I can dislike him for waiting so long to draw it at last.

On the plus side he’s tying up resources that would otherwise be put towards more genocide.

This is the best summary I could come up with:


A former member of President Vladimir Putin’s Federal Protective Service said that he has been pursued since he fled Russia and denounced the invasion of Ukraine.

Vitaly Brizhaty told Insider that he fled to Ecuador after months of trying to leave his job guarding one of the palaces used by Putin, an attempt that he says saw him interrogated and threatened with prison.

Brizhaty showed Insider warning messages he has received since arriving in Ecuador, which say that those working for the Kremlin are trying to find him and force him back to Russia.

Brizhaty spoke to Insider via a translator about how he came to reject Russian propaganda and support Ukraine, even while he worked to protect Putin’s life.

But even as he managed sniffer dogs and scoped out the public spaces Putin would visit, Brizhaty had quietly been nurturing dissident views.

He started listening to opposition politician Alexei Navalny, watching independent media, and found himself revolted by Russian state propaganda — and the lavish surroundings of the palace.
