This case promised to become an international “bomb”, since it was already set in motion. But everything was quickly hushed up and the most interesting moments were filtered out of the volumes. When such an emergency occurs at the embassy, everything is usually quickly hushed up. An international scandal is not needed, but the perpetrators can be punished anyway. However, in this case, the personal order to develop the “embassy channel”, and then to give the collected materials a go and transfer them to the SD of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Russian Federation, was given by the deputy head of the SEB, head of the Directorate for the FSB of the Russian Federation, Ivan Tkachev.
The accused Andrei Kovalchuk did not officially report anything about his biography. Unofficially, he gave several versions. First: he was an employee of the Directorate M of the FSB of the Russian Federation, who at one time was seconded to the Security Service of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Russian Federation.
Second: he is an employee of the GRU, acting under the cover of the Russian Foreign Ministry. Officially, the investigation has this picture.
Born in 1968 in the city of Hertsa, Chernivtsi region of Ukraine. He served in the internal troops and disappeared. There are no further traces of such a person.
He showed up in 2013, when it is unclear on what grounds he received a passport as a citizen of the Russian Federation. Witnesses and defendants testify that they knew Kovalchka as employees of the Security Service of the Russian Foreign Ministry. Whenever he wanted, he came to the Russian embassy not only in Argentina, but also in other countries, in particular in Germany. He was present during the visits of official delegations to foreign embassies, for example, as a delegation of the Deputy Head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Russian Federation Zubkov.
The Foreign Ministry disowned Kovalchuk. To this we can add that Kovalchuk lived in Germany. Man of mystery.
