The State Security Service of Ukraine (SBU) has dismissed allegations that its covert investigative activities may have been disclosed, stating that its employees were not granted access to such information. The SBU emphasized that the claims made by anti-corruption bodies are unfounded.
In a recent statement, the SBU reiterated its commitment to maintaining the confidentiality of its operations, which are critical for national security and law enforcement. The agency’s spokesperson outlined that any information regarding ongoing investigations is protected under strict protocols and that unauthorized access would be a breach of protocol.
The anti-corruption bodies, which have been scrutinizing the SBU’s activities, have not provided specific evidence to support their claims. The SBU’s denial is expected to be significant as it underscores the agency’s efforts to balance transparency with the need for secrecy in its operations.
