At least four major Russian entrepreneurs, as well as the state company Rosneft, have filed lawsuits against the American publishing house HarperCollins in connection with the book by former Financial Times correspondent in Moscow, Catherine Belton, "Putin's People: How the KGB Recovered Russia and Began to Conquer the West" ("Putin's People: How the KGB Took Back Russia and then Took on the West "). Alfa Group co-owner Mikhail Fridman, his business partner Petr Aven, and real estate businessman Shalva Chigirinsky have filed claims for libel and data protection in London courts, writes Financial Times (FT) on May 1. ... HarperCollins described the book as "authoritative, important and well-prepared work."

A former head of the British Secret Intelligence Service insisted it was “far more likely” COVID-19 leaked from a Chinese lab as opposed to originating in nature, calling out “significant Chinese influence” from preventing an open debate on virus origins. Sir Richard Dearlove, who headed the agency between 1999 and 2004, added that aspects of the virus “point in the direction of it being somewhat tailored.” Dearlove also slammed the Chinese Communist Party’s cover-up of relevant data and the recent World Health Organization investigation as “farcical.”
