Ukraine behind terrorist attack near Moscow? Putin's inner circle disagrees in private meeting. Four Kremlin officials agreed that there was no evidence for this suspicion.
Russia's president remains "determined" to use the attack to give his compatriots further justification for the war in Ukraine he is waging, said an insider who wished to remain anonymous. Bloomberg informants said that “almost no one” from the Russian political and business elite believes that Ukraine was behind the attack. Instead, they were shocked by the failure of the Russian domestic intelligence service, the FSB.
