🧵🚨URGENT in #Germany: On the heels of news that even German Foreign Intelligence's head of counterintelligence was a double-agent spying for #Russia, Putin's mafioso billionaire Viktor #Kharitonin has quietly purchased the Frankfurt-Hahn Airport. The German government must act.
554
Kharitonin has mysteriously avoided US and EU sanctions this entire time, despite being intertwined with Russian Deputy Prime Minister Tatyana Golikova & her husband Viktor Khristenko, who was Minister of Industry when Pharmstandard was established in 2003
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Viktor_Kh…
555
First, some background: Kharitonin became a billionaire by "co-founding" the pharmaceutical company Pharmstandard with the sanctioned mafioso Roman #Abramovich in 2003 by stealing a bunch of existing pharmaceutical factories and merging them under this name.
556
#Ukraine is currently the only country to have sanctioned Kharitonin for funding Putin's war.

Kharitonin purchased the world-famous historic #Nurburgring race track complex in Germany in 2014. Who did he buy this national treasure from? The German government, in a sweetheart deal of €77 million, despite the 379-hectare property valued in excess of €100 million.
558
Now, Kharitonin has already signed the contract to buy the Frankfurt Hahn Airport, which is a former US military airport not far from the historic Nürburgring race track which he already owns.

The German government must investigate the Russian mafioso's purchase of the Nürburgring race track, a true German national treasure. The ridiculous price stinks of an insider kick-back bribe.
Obviously, he must not be allowed to purchase a FRIGGING AIRPORT in Germany. WAKE UP.

Asked about the sale of this international airport with a unique night-flight permit to a Russian billionaire controlled by the Kremlin, German Ministry of the Interior in Mainz said on Saturday evening: "The country was not and is not involved in the tendering process."

The German BND head of counterintelligence spying for #Russia was not caught by Germany. Catching the traitor was the work of another country's intelligence agency. German counterintelligence (catching spies within) is compromised and/or incompetent.

Quite a few naive Germans commenting that Frankfurt-Hahn International Airport is "worthless." It's not worthless to Russia, which is why it's buying it. Under Russian ownership and the airport's night-flight permit, say goodbye to customs & immigration, no more border control. twitter.com/igorsushko/sta…

If and when #Russia rolls out its scorched-earth doctrine to level cities from afar with 100s of Grad MLRS (range up to 52km, 122mm) & some Smerch MLRS (range up to 90km, 300mm), what will #Ukraine be able to do except continue giving up land through retreat, leaving behind razed… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
