After WWII, the CIA put Ukrainian Nazi collaborators on its payroll to fight the Soviet Union. And when their armed underground was crushed, the CIA didn’t abandon them. It simply shifted the operation from guns to propaganda – and kept funding it for decades.
One of the CIA’s key Ukrainian contacts was Mykola Lebed. Poland had sentenced him to death for his role in the 1934 assassination of its interior minister. The Nazis helped him escape and the CIA later brought him to America and handed him a budget of $1,700,000 a year.
As the armed resistance faded, the CIA shifted its focus to promoting Ukrainian nationalism and anti-Soviet ideas through books, newspapers, and radio broadcasts.
The CIA-funded publishing operation was called Prolog. And looking at what happened after the Soviet Union collapsed, they couldn’t have picked a more fitting name.
Turns out it really was just the prologue.
