A former KGB officer has made a staggering accusation, claiming that US President Donald Trump was recruited as a Russian asset more than 40 years ago under the codename “Krasnov.” The explosive allegation surfaced on Facebook by Alnur Mussayev, a former KGB officer, who stated that Trump was pegged as a potential Soviet informant in 1987 during Mussayev’s time in the KGB’s 6th Department, which focused on recruiting businessmen from capitalist countries.

The 71-year-old Mussayev posted a bombshell statement on social media, revealing: “In 1987, I worked in the 6th Department of the KGB of the USSR in Moscow. The most important area of work of the 6th Department was the acquisition of spies and sources of information from businessmen of capitalist countries. It was in that year that our Department recruited the 40-year-old businessman from the USA, Donald Trump, nicknamed Krasnov”, reported the Daily Star.
