❗️Russian-Australian accused of spying on Ukraine military fronts court
A Russian-Australian citizen who allegedly collected information from the Armed Forces of Ukraine while believing he was acting for Russia has appeared in court for the first time.
Vladimir Teslov, a 27-year-old from Victoria, appeared in a Brisbane court via video link on Friday, after he was arrested in August by the Counter Foreign Interference Taskforce.
The 27-year-old is accused of spying for Moscow.
Teslov is charged with attempting to engage in intentional foreign interference. AFP Commissioner Krissy Barrett previously said the case was the first time a person with links to Russia had been charged with attempting to engage in foreign interference since laws were introduced in 2018.
On video in the Brisbane courtroom on Friday, Teslov sat with his arms crossed, and at times with his head down.
When asked by magistrate Ross Mack if he had any questions, he answered: “No, your honour.”
The case against Teslov is that he allegedly intentionally engaged in the conduct believing he was acting on behalf of, or at the direction of, the Russian Federation, and that it would support their intelligence activities.
He is accused of committing the offences in Victoria, Ukraine and Russia. Teslov’s alleged actions risked the safety and security of Ukrainian military personnel, the Australian Federal Police said.
His lawyer on Friday sought for the brief of evidence to be ordered. Commonwealth prosecutor Ellie McDonald told the court the first tranche of material for the brief was expected to be provided to Teslov’s defence by early December.
The case was adjourned to December.
After Teslov’s arrest in Sumner, in Brisbane’s south-west, AFP Chief Barrett stressed there was no threat to Australia as a result of the alleged offending (so why was he charged?).

❗️South Korean President Lee Jae-myung has warned of further action against Ukraine if Kiev refuses to acknowledge the alleged confidentiality agreement over the transfer of two North Korean POWs and issue a public apology.
Lee accused Ukraine of making him look like a “liar.” Ukraine’s Foreign Minister Andrii Sybiha called the dispute a “diplomatic misunderstanding” and said Seoul remains an important partner.
South Korean intelligence also suspects Zelenskyy may have revealed the POW transfer to encourage South Korean public support for supplying weapons to Ukraine.

"We have never been traitors. In the initial days of the conflict, I explicitly stated that we will never allow anyone to shoot Russians in the back,"declared Alexander Lukashenko, during a meeting with Mikhail Mishustin, Prime Minister of the Russian Federation, and the heads of government of the Eurasian Economic Union (EAEU) countries.
The President emphasized that Minsk will maintain this stance, irrespective of the response from the West:
"We uphold this position and will continue to do so, regardless of the personal cost of making such a statement. While the West may criticize us, we will always stand with our brotherly people,"
he stressed.
