No, border guards are still an FSB wing. They were briefly its own agency after the fall of USSR, but were reattached to FSB in 2003. That's why the number of FSB employees is so inflated in this video, the bulk of them is in border guards, and considering the length of Russian borders there are a lot of them. The FSB main body is around 30-60k according to different sources. But calling all of them a secret police is quite a stretch, they have a lot of facets. To be fair the division of responsibilities between agencies in Russia is pretty unclear, FSB is kinda like FBI, but with less police stuff and more CIA overtones.

@de Alcântara SVR is foreign political and technical intelligence, it's the remants of the old KGB first chief directorate which handled the above stated areas, where as the GRU now the GU is military intelligence and is subordinate to the general staff of the ministry of defense

Din't stop them from appearing on Ukraine

@@dirckthedork-knight1201 huh?

@@OOpSjm Yes you heard right the FSB is known to operate outside Russia in countries close to it like Ukraine

The GRU also has special operations forces troops, the GRU spetsnaz which carry out covert military missions unlike the NSA.

GRU is more like the DIA

Correct except for GRU , more like the military intelligence, but it's unique in it's kind anyways.

GRU can't compare to anything America has. Except for maybe a more militarized version of the CIA. They are responsible for both cyber attacks, espionage, and large-scale covert military operations both domestically and internationally. I don't believe America has anything that covers so much at once.

@@Thor.Jorgensen the militarized version of the CIA is the DIA. And both (and more) have way more capabilities than GRU. GRU is a very amateurishly organization judging by recent operators getting caught everywhere due to beginner spycraft mistake ls

Thank you Russia 👍🙏💝

Lol

And the MVD? Dept of Homeland Security, or still different?

@@seyahznarf sort of the mvd has control over the civilian law enforcement, anti corruption agencies to an extent, fire departments and some customs and border control, anything that doesn't essentially affect state security because if it does it goes to the FSB as they are the state security organ.

@@ljones121 Interesting! They sound like more of an administrative agency, with security and intelligence traits.

@@seyahznarf kind of are, they used to also control the non-political prisons in the soviet union, the KGB controlled the political prisons. Now there's an independent agency that runs most of the prisons. But yes the mvd is the over arching administration for alot of things it used to be the nkvd, and controlled the secret police as well.

The FSB also acts like the NSA as it absorbed FAPSI the cryptographic and cyberspace agency

That was some fancy shooting, pretty good

Yes, comrade.

God is a little strong. He's just a money man with intelligence training, in a world leader position, who happens to control a vast feifdom. He deliberately manipulates his image to project power and command respect, using disinformation, delay in communication (translation from English to Russian for time to consider how to respond), and machismo in order to appear superior to his peers. Edit: over reactive auto correct :)

Sure, Russia never do anything wrong…. doping, cheating, corruption, invading crimea and east ukraine. the list is endless

Anton Smirnov Ya sure, it’s all the “Joooooooows” fault. It’s amusing that the USSR created most anti-Jew Propaganda when Israel sided with the US during the Cold War.

@@garykrakow2383 How does that compare with America's (ZOG's) attack on Serbia, destruction of Afghanistan, Iraq and Libya, attempted destruction of Syria, destabilisation of Ukraine, and endless threats of war against Iran? And it's not over yet. It's also worth mentioning that the Russian Revolution was not Russian.

The crimea is historically and mostly ethically Russian territory, though i suppose that the Crimean Tartars have a good argument that the territory is technically theirs, as they lived there till the 1940s when they were deported to the far east by the NKVD under orders of Stalin and Beria. But I digress, Kruschev did gift the Crimea to the Ukraine but at the time it wasn't a big deal, United country and all, no one foresaw the breakup of the soviet state so...that collapse creates the current situations and conditions we see now

@Yoshimitsu Keke Gorbachev thought he could reform the unreformable, the Soviet system as created by Lenin and perfected by Stalin was not able to be changed ever, Nikita did some surface changes mildly curbed the MGB/KGB and the MVD's powers but not really and he moved Crimea, well because Krushev never foresaw the collapse of the USSR. I'm not against Crimea joining Russia, as long as they willingly voted to join the Russian Federation and the election results weren't tampered with or intimidated in to voting pro Russia.

Ask Hitler...

That was good😁
