What forces are operating in the shadows of the war in Ukraine, both inside and outside the theater of operations? What clandestine operations have been going on for the past three years, unknown to the general public? How does the secret war between Russia and Western countries often spill over into terrorism? What assassinations have been carried out against oligarchs across Europe? How are Western intelligence services, particularly British, helping the Ukrainians? What is the presence of Ukrainian services in Russia? What has become of the American biological laboratories since 1922?... To answer these questions and many others, Jacques Baud draws on official information, American, Western, Ukrainian and Russian documents. Between secret diplomacy and clandestine operations, the war in Ukraine was far more complex than the media portrayed it.
After the bestsellers Putin, the Master of the Game, Operation Z and Ukraine Between War and Peace and The Art of Russian War, whose analytical work has been acclaimed worldwide and whose books have been translated in many countries (USA, China, Japan, Korea, Great Britain, Germany -bestseller-, Russia, Italy, Spain, Sweden, Norway, Turkey, Brazil and the Arab countries), the author returns to the clandestine war that has been waged between Russia, Ukraine and Western countries for the past three years.
Jacques Baud is a former member of Swiss strategic intelligence, specialist in Eastern Europe and head of the United Nations peace operations doctrine. He took part in discussions with top Russian military and intelligence officials just after the fall of the USSR. Within NATO, he took part in programs in Ukraine, notably after the Maïdan revolution between 2014 and 2017. He is the author of several books on intelligence, war and terrorism, including Poutine, le maître du jeu?, Opération Z, Ukraine entre guerre et paix, L'art de la guerre russe, Opération déluge d'Al-Aqsa and Gouverner par les fake news, published by Max Milo.
