Asset D (Station Chief: Sergei Nikolaevich Dragomirov)
You and your cell are to open communication with Rinat Akhmetov, Viktor Pinchuk, Ihor Kolomoyskyi and Dmytro Firtash. These oligarchs are greatly endangered by the rise of the far right in Ukraine and their illegitimately acquired business assets risk being confiscated. They will be the connection pints between us and members of the former Ukrainian government, which will allow us to build a new consolidated opposition.
Each of the oligarchs will be promised asylum in Russia if persecuted, the use of Sberbank and Gazprombank as tax havens with no disclosure of assets to the government of Ukraine, and arms (should they be required) in exchange for seeking to mobilize the former political factions of the country into a single bloc.
Whichever oligarch is most passionate about our operation will be recruited to contact ABBA (Arsen Borysovych Avakov), 4-E (Yatsenyuk), and Cersei (Yulia Tymoshenko) to consolidate their deposed political factions into a single bloc claiming to want to resist the right wing. This operation will be modeled by our previous successful operation - the creation of the Georgian Dream Party under Bidzina Ivanishvili. The politicians will supervise the creation of a vague and appealing populist message, while the oligarchs will mobilize their corrupt contacts in danger of being replaced by right-wing political cohorts and less corrupt officials to form a "deep state" within the Ukraine.
Protests are to begin immediately. The Russian government will support this movement indirectly in public by promising a new round of negotiations with the Ukrainian government over the transfer of sovereignty of the Crimea, which, of course, the nationalist government of Ukraine will refuse - or we will claim they do.
There will be no oversight of any FSB assets over this movement. It will be run purely through our proxies in the Ukrainian business sector.
Asset F (Yury Alexandrevich Kolevin, Director of C-INT, Southwest District) will arrange for the hacking of the Ukrainian nationalist politicians and the disclosure of that information through the oligarchs to the consolidated opposition.
Objective is not to overthrow Ukrainian government, but simply to destabilize and create violent clashes on street. Do not overstep.
