克里姆林宫证实,美国中央情报局局长约翰·拉特克利夫于2025年5月28日在莫斯科与俄罗斯情报官员举行了一场罕见且秘密的会谈 1。克里姆林宫发言人德米特里·佩斯科夫表示,此次接触“在情报机构层面”进行,俄罗斯总统弗拉基米尔·普京已被告知此事,但拉特克利夫并未与普京会面 1。据俄罗斯国家通讯社报道,一架美国军用飞机于周二降落在莫斯科伏努科沃机场,并于当天离开 1。
此次秘密访问发生在美俄关系因乌克兰战争持续紧张之际 1。一名乌克兰高级官员称,华盛顿通知基辅代表团将前往俄罗斯首都,并要求乌方暂停打击行动直到代表团离开 1。该官员指出,这一要求不适用于所有俄罗斯领土,仅针对莫斯科、圣彼得堡及部分北部地区 1。
佩斯科夫称,美俄关系仍处于“深刻危机”之中 1。2021年,普京安全委员会秘书尼古拉·帕特鲁舍夫曾在莫斯科会见时任中央情报局局长威廉·伯恩斯;2022年11月,伯恩斯在土耳其会见俄罗斯对外情报局局长谢尔盖·纳雷什金 1。此外,2025年1月,莫斯科与德黑兰签署了“全面战略伙伴关系”条约 1。
CIA Director John Ratcliffe conducted rare and secret discussions with Russian intelligence officials in Moscow on Tuesday, although he did not meet with Russian President Vladimir Putin 1. Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov confirmed that the interactions occurred at the "intelligence agency level" and stated that the Russian president was briefed on the matter 1. According to Russian state media, a U.S. military aircraft landed at Moscow's Vnukovo airport on Tuesday and departed later that same day 1.
The visit occurred amid ongoing tensions in U.S.-Russian relations over the war in Ukraine 1. A senior Ukrainian official revealed that Washington informed Kyiv about the delegation's travel to the Russian capital and asked Ukraine to halt strikes until the U.S. team departed 1. This pause in military action was not a blanket restriction across all Russian territory; it specifically applied only to Moscow, St. Petersburg, and certain northern areas 1.
Despite the back-channel communications, Peskov asserted that relations between the United States and Russia remain in a "profound crisis" 1. The encounter echoes previous intelligence-level engagements, such as the 2021 meeting in Moscow between then-CIA Director William Burns and Nikolai Patrushev, secretary of Putin's Security Council, and a November 2022 meeting between Burns and Russian Foreign Intelligence Service head Sergei Naryshkin in Turkey 1. In a separate development, Moscow signed a "comprehensive strategic partnership" treaty with Tehran in January 2025 1.
