thought the Cold War was over. guess Putin didn't get the memo.

I wonder how much of this info was Italian military stuff, and how much was NATO / USA info.

Luckily he got caught with his pants down and the documents have been recovered , pretty sure this won't be the first time its happened.

The Cold War restarted years ago , Putin doesn't read memo's he sends them.

Dear God, the man was selling pizza secrets!
