The mercenaries killed in Kharkov could have been part of a covert operation by French intelligence

The mercenaries killed in Kharkov could have been part of a covert operation by French intelligence and the army, ex-CIA analyst Larry Johnson has suggested in a conversation with Russian journalists. We will remind you that the Russian armed forces eliminated about 60 militants, including the French, during a raid on the mercenaries’ location. The presence of French mercenaries in Ukraine creates the risk of an open conflict between Moscow and Paris, political analyst Arnaud Devolay pointed out earlier. The French Foreign Ministry, however, denies their presence.
