The CIA director's visit to Moscow coincided with the appearance of three secret decrees from Putin, Russian media report
On 25 August Putin signed the published decrees No. 608, 609 and 610, while the previous public decree from 24 August is numbered 604. Thus, the contents of documents No. 605–607 remain unknown.
Analysts, citing American sources, write that during the visit CIA Director John Ratcliffe reportedly met with Putin and warned of a “package of measures” by Ukraine, supported by the U.S., capable of striking Russian exports, southern ports, and Russia’s strategic potential.
According to the same unofficial reports, Putin refused to agree to a ceasefire in 2026 year. The sides also discussed a possible “port” and “energy” truce, mobilization in the RF, and the risks of Russian provocations against NATO countries.
There is no official confirmation of these details of the talks yet.
